問題詳情

請依下文回答第 38 題至第 41 題：Our fascination with eating and drinking behaviors and their causes has resulted in a huge industry of food-relatedpop science. Every bookstore, every magazine stand, every grocery store checkout counter is filled with publicationsabout how to get your child to eat vegetables, how to tell if someone has an eating disorder or, most commonly, how tolose weight. But the degree to which any of these is based on scientific research is very limited. In contrast to theliterature for the general reader, the scientific research on eating and drinking behaviors is usually too technical for thegeneral reader. The Psychology of Eating and Drinking is a unique volume, a textbook that can be comprehended by thegeneral educated reader. Just as in her previous books, Alexandra Logue grounds her investigation into the complexinteractions between our physiology, our surroundings, and our eating and drinking habits in laboratory research andup-to-date scientific information. The chapters move from the general—hunger and thirst, taste and smell, and eatingbehaviors—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 themost up to date advances. This method provides the reader with a general introduction to the physiology of sensationsrelated to eating and drinking and how these sensations are influenced by the individual’s social surroundings. Thus, thisbook provides general readers with a biological and psychological framework to understand their eating behaviors.
