Based on decades of experience offering nutrition counselling to individuals and families; personal family experiences with illness and loss; and research with people who, owing to illness, disability, or ageing, were not able to eat as they once did, Registered Dietitian, Dr. Catherine Morley, has written an informative and instructional book, combining research reporting, memoir, journal entries, excerpts from interviews rewritten for theatre, and a self study workbook.

No Love Like It: Feeding Someone Who is Sick was written to reassure readers that they are not alone in the challenges they face, and to understand that disruptions in feeding relationships during a time of changed health status are normal and to be expected, although very often come as a surprise. With this book, readers will be able to recognize the fundamental shifts that have occurred in their relationships with and through food owing to someone's changed health status, either as a caregiver or as a person experiencing it; to develop plans to address the feeding challenges they are facing; and to learn where to get help.

In the self study section of No Love Like It: Feeding Someone Who is Sick, Morley guides readers to reflect on the many aspects of eating and feeding outlined in the first section of the book. Readers can identify and sort through sources of "dietary cacophony", the many and often contradictory "should" messages about eating and feeding that one hears, reads, or thinks about. Having identified all that has been on their minds, readers will then be able to decide on messages relevant to their situations to find ways to minimize any feeding-related distress. In this book, Morley reminds caregivers about the need to nourish themselves as their own eating is often thrown into disarray while caregiving.
