Description:
Treatment with drugs is fundamental to modern therapy of
psychiatric disorders. The number of disorders responsive to drug
treatment is increasing, reflecting the extensive synthesis of
novel compounds and the greater understanding of the aetiology of
the disorders.
This third edition provides new and updated material, including
an additional chapter on clinical trials and their importance in
assessing the efficacy and safety of psychotropic drugs. As
molecular biology and imaging techniques are of increasing
importance to basic and clinical neuroscience, these areas have
also been extended to illustrate their relevance to our
understanding of psychopharmacology.
This book is essential reading for undergraduates in
pharmacology and the neurosciences, postgraduate
neuropharmacologists, psychiatrists in training and in practice and
medical researchers.
Reviews of the Second Edition
"?this text is eminently readable, well researched, and
probably the best of its kind.
The book is well worth buying and anyone who claims to know
anything about psychopharmacology will be expected to have a
heavily annotated copy." Irish Journal of Psychological
Medicine
"?[this is] a very good book, especially suited to those
interested in psychopharmacologic research and psychiatric
residency in training." Journal of Chemical Neuroanatomy
