Jane Ogden was born in 1966 in London and studied at Sussex University and the Institute of Psychiatry in London. After spending much of her career in medical schools she is currently a Professor in Health Psychology at Surrey University. She has written 7 academic books and two trade books on parenting around food and the psychology of dieting. She is also a frequent contributor to radio and TV programmes and is often asked for 'expert comments' for a wide range of magazines and newspapers. Her parenting book is 'The Good Parenting Food Guide' which is a combination of research evidence and real life experience and provides practical ways to help parents manage what their children eat without making food into a problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09dzuvRWpZU Her recent book on The Psychology of Dieting describes why so many diets fail and although it does not offer a miracle cure (sorry) describes some tricks and skills that might be useful to help yourself or others lose weight. This year she has published 'Thinking critically about Research: a step by step guide' which is based upon years of teaching research methods and critical thinking to all sorts of people. The books offers clear instructions about how to make sense of research and to decide whether or not any conclusions are justified. It is a must for anyone who teaches or uses research (ie everyone!).
