The Routledge International Handbook of Psychobiology by Philip N Murphy

The International Handbook of Psychobiology provides authoritative, cutting-edge research across the range of areas that fall under the umbrella of psychobiology.

"This is an exciting book with chapters written by a group of internationally-known authorsIt very effectively addresses cutting-edge material and manages to link the more ‘pure’ aspects of psychobiology with applications to real-world issues of health and well-being, such as drugs, addiction, pain and stress. The editors and authors have done a good job in making the chapters accessible. It will be very useful to researchers and students of psychology."

Frederick Toates, Emeritus Professor of Biological Psychology, The Open University

"In The Routledge International Handbook of Psychobiology, Philip Murphy has brought together a variety of experts to deliver an engaging and thought-provoking review of contemporary research in this core aspect of Psychology. Throughout the chapters, which include classical areas of study such as sleep and drug addiction, and more innovative and intriguing topics such as the impact of mobile phone use and essential oils on cognitive function, the book skilfully teases apart the implications of reductionism within the context of socio-culturalism. This is a volume reflecting careful thought and a wide range of expertise. I am confident that it will be of considerable interest to a diverse range of psychologists."

Professor Kate Bullen, Head of School, Applied Social Science, University of Brighton
