The first compendium on methodologies for the clinical evaluation of psychotropic drugs to be published in over 20 years, this important volume succeeds the seminal 1971 volume, also jointly sponsored by the National Institute of Mental Health and the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology. The book has three main sections: historical perspectives on drug development and guidelines; general methodological principles of drug evaluations; and applications of these principles to specific disorders and patient groups. Its 25 chapters encompass all of the major psychotropic drug classes, presenting state-of-the-art methods for evaluating the clinical actions of centrally acting drugs.
