Neuropsychiatry and Behavioral Neuraosciences

Despite the great increase of new knowledge in neuropsychiatry, the editors of the Fifth Edition have successfully avoided escalating size to impracticality, reducing the textbook's overall length while providing much new information. This magnificent volume will be a rewarding resource to all those who work in the mental health spectrum, from beginning students to the most advanced psychiatric practitioners. --From the Introduction by Solomon H. Snyder, M.D., Distinguished Service Professor of Neuroscience, Pharmacology, and Psychiatry, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland
