The method of teaching through illustration and conceptual form should continue to make it very popular.....Completely revised and updated with the latest developments, this editioncaptures the shift from the receptor model to brain circuits and signal transduction cascades. The basic sciences section has been doubled to cover the advances in the understanding of the functioning of neurons, signal transduction cascades, ion channels, genetics, brain circuits, imaging, and disease models of pathophysiology. The clinical section has been expanded from the previous edition to discuss the psychiatric disorder and the corresponding malfunctioning brain circuit. This section also details the advances in the latest hypothesis of the disorder as well as the latest drugs related to the treatment of the disorder. New to this edition is a chapter on pain and the treatment of fibromyalgia and other somatic syndromes. Separate chapters now cover dementia and attention deficit disorders with the newest treatments as well as drugs that are in the pipeline. Of special note is the chapter on reward that has been expanded from substance abuse to cover disorders of sexual function, eating, and impulsivity. Unique to Dr. Stahl's books are the illustrations, which have been expanded in this edition to reflect the latest advances. Information is presented in conceptual form that makes it easier to read and understand. The book maintains a consistent format and is augmented with more graphs and tables.\" \n\u003cbr\u003e --Doody's Book Review Service\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReview Quotes\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cbr\u003e\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"Stephen Stahl is one of the most recognizable names in psychopharmacology.
