Bringing the latest breakthroughs in neuroscience to the clinician, this text provides resident
and practicing psychiatrists with a comprehensive, clinically relevant overview of the brain
mechanisms underlying behavior and mental illness. The book presents an integrated perspective
on the structures and workings of the brain, the mechanisms governing behaviors such as pleasure,
aggression, and intelligence, and the pathophysiology of mental disorders. More than 200 two-color
illustrations clarify key concepts. Questions and answers at the end of each chapter facilitate
review and board preparation. Readers will also have online access to the complete, fully searchable
text and a quiz bank of over 150 questions at www.neuroscienceofclinicalpsychiatry.com.
