Textbook of Biological Psychiatry Summary

Textbook of Biological Psychiatry by Jaak Panksepp (Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, OH Northwestern University, Evanston, IL Medical College of Ohio, Toledo, OH)

A Textbook of Biological Psychiatry integrates the basic science concerning brain mechanisms of psychiatric disorders alongside surveys of present standard clinical treatment. Organized in a coherent and easy to follow structure, chapters expand across different levels of analysis, from basic mechanisms to clinical practice. This comprehensive reference provides an integrative treatment of the biochemistry of neurotransmission, behavioral pharmacology, and clinical aspects of psychiatric problems including depression, manic-depression, and mood disorders. Other chapters address the biological mechanisms and treatment of depression, anxiety, panic, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and addictions. The editor concludes with a perspective on the future of the field and prospects for understanding and effectively treating mood and anxiety disorders.

Textbook of Biological Psychiatry Reviews

This book is a must for the library of every medical school, basic medical science facility, and psychiatric hospital...useful for students, teachers, and practitioners. (American Journal of Psychiatry, March 2005)

...an ambitious volume, covering a broad swath of important recent research...will undoubtedly appeal to those with research interests in the neuroscientific aspects of psychiatry... (Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 291, No. 17, May 5, 2004)

I would recommend this book as a highly current resource summarizing our knowledge concisely and accurately, pointing to future avenues with great optimism and mastery, and painting an overall very bright view of the team effort that has brought us to our current state. (Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, August 2004)
