Biological Bases of Brain Function and Disease

This important volume is the successor to the classic text, Biological Bases of Psychiatric Disorders, edited by Drs. Frazer and Winokur in 1977. Integrating an extraordinary range of information from the basic neurosciences and the clinical domains of psychiatry, psychopharmacology, and neuropharmacology, this new text defines contemporary concepts on brain function and neuropsychiatric disease. The book presents these concepts in a systematic, understandable manner and is an ideal text for courses in biological psychiatry, psychopharmacology, and neuropharmacology, as well as a valuable review for resident and practicing psychiatrists.
