Description

This volume includes several excellent chapters, introducing the reader to a number of developing concepts in the world of psychiatric neuroscience. These topics are alternately discussed on a more general, easy-to-understand level, and in great technical detail - each with their own merits. The reference lists/information are also quite helpful for those wishing to pursue a topic further (for example, a thorough table of mouse knockout studies in which an anxiety-like phenotype was found). Another highlight is the excellent discussion of how the field of psychiatric genetics is coming of age. This book will prove interesting to both basic scientists and clinical psychiatrists, and even to laypersons with a particular interest in this field.
