Psychiatry as a Neuroscience provides an overview of recent solid advances in biological psychiatry which are of clinical relevance. These include psychoneuroendocrinological and psychoimmunological findings in major depression genetic and neuroimaging data in schizophrenia molecular genetic findings in Alzheimer’s disease neuroimaging data in obsessive-compulsive disorder. This book will be of interest to psychiatrists and psychologists, neuroscientists, managers and policy makers.
