Sumario: | Over a ten-year period, Professor Ma carried out cross-disciplinary research in Hong Kong focused on the effectiveness of structural family therapy for Chinese patients suffering from anorexia nervosa.

The present collection synthesizes this clinical experience into a culturally specific, socially relevant, and clinically useful family treatment model for patients. |
