More DescriptionOur understanding of the neurobiological basis of psychiatric disease has accelerated in the past five years. This fourth edition has been inspired by new tools and methodologies, updated diagnostic classifications, and emerging therapeutics coming to the fore. The growing knowledge of all major psychiatric syndromes-their etiology, pathophysiology and treatment-is once again synthesized across different levels of analysis including aspects pertaining to their molecular biology, genetics, epigenetics, cellular physiology, neuroanatomy, neuropharmacology, and behavior. No other book distills the basic science and underpinnings of mental disorders and explains the clinical significance to the scope and breadth of this classic text.
