Our fascination with eating and drinking behaviors and their causes has resulted in a huge industry of food-related
pop science. Every bookstore, every magazine stand, every grocery store checkout counter is filled with publications
about how to get your child to eat vegetables, how to tell if someone has an eating disorder or, most commonly, how to
lose weight. But the degree to which any of these is based on scientific research is very limited. In contrast to the
literature for the general reader, the scientific research on eating and drinking behaviors is usually too technical for the
general reader. The Psychology of Eating and Drinking is a unique volume, a textbook that can be comprehended by the
general educated reader. Just as in her previous books, Alexandra Logue grounds her investigation into the complex
interactions between our physiology, our surroundings, and our eating and drinking habits in laboratory research and
up-to-date scientific information. The chapters move from the general—hunger and thirst, taste and smell, and eating
behaviors—to the more specialized—overeating and overdrinking, anorexia and bulimia, and alcohol use. In each case,
Logue provides a brief synopsis of the most historically influential scientific research and then relates this history to the
most up to date advances. This method provides the reader with a general introduction to the physiology of sensations
related to eating and drinking and how these sensations are influenced by the individual’s social surroundings. Thus, this
book provides general readers with a biological and psychological framework to understand their eating behaviors.
