This revealing and useful book tells how emotions can cause bad eating habits and provides an effective antidote to radical crash diets. The author uses a cognitive-behavioral approach, and offers an encouraging alternative to current theories on the causes on overeating, such as psychopathology, addiction, or moral weakness. Emotional Eating shows how to identify individual patterns of emotional eating, and then tells readers how to respond to these patterns. Filled with tables charts, and self-assessment tests, Emotional Eating can help you learn self-control by identifying emotional triggers and developing alternative behaviors.

A Breakthrough Plan for Overcoming Emotional Eating--Without Dieting A highly visible authority on eating and weight disorders, Dr. Edward Abramson uses a refreshing, thought-based approach that brings new perspective to the subject--and new hope to dieters everywhere. Like the groundbreaking book Emotional Intelligence, Dr. Abramson's exciting life program redefines old beliefs. It teaches people to rethink their eating habits, reinvent their body image, and resist the endless cycle of quick-fix diets. This is what he calls Body Intelligence--a simple, safe, and smart three-step program that can show anyone how to eat intelligently, look at the body intelligently, and use the body intelligently. This is the intelligent way to eat well, lose weight, and live life to the fullest. There are no rigid meal plans, no low-fat recipes, no carb and calorie counters. Instead, Body Intelligence offers a unique weight-control plan that goes to the root of most eating problems--the thought patterns that affect the way people eat, the way they see themselves, and the way they live. It's a complete, lifelong program that can open minds and transform bodies--without dieting. Dr. Abramson gives even lifelong dieters the power to: <ul>
<li>Understand cravings and eating habits </li>
<li>Learn how to enjoy eating again--without guilt </li>
<li>Develop a realistic, positive body image </li>
<li>Experience a more active, fulfilling life </li>
</ul>

A Circle in the Square tells the story of a project that by all the rules of logic should have failed, but instead succeeded wildly. In the 1960s, a time of deep religious and existential crisis, when the question of God's existence was being debated among people of all faiths, a young man fresh out of graduate school began teaching an ancient religion to its own members - Jews who had little or no connection to Judaism. In 1964, when twenty-three-year-old Rabbi Steven Riskin became the rabbi of Lincoln Square Synagogue on New York's Upper West Side, he had no set plan. Nevertheless, he revolutionized Orthodox Judaism by making it attractive and relevant to American Jews. Within these pages, readers will learn about Rabbi Riskin's unprecedented approach to adult Jewish education and his steadfast commitment to reaching out to each and every Jew within and beyond the four walls of Lincoln Square Synagogue. Rabbi Riskin also emphasized the importance of bringing heaven down to earth, and inviting God into the synagogue as a regular guest. A Circle in the Square is a spellbinding account of one man's profound influence on Orthodox Judaism - an influence that is felt to this day.
