Recenzii

recommended as general background reading for postgraduate students on the neurosciences and for others interested in psychiatry, psychology, neurophysiology and related fields.
the book is an excellent condensation of important brain functions and their manipulation with psychotropic drugs
this is an exciting volume which can be read with profit by any undergraduate student of the life sciences or postgraduates studying for the MRCPsych. The author is also to be congratulated on the scope of her references ... this is a valuable addition to the texts that are currently available in Psychopharmacology.
This book remains brave in trying to assess the actions of drugs on identified brain systems ... Ashton writes well and undergraduates may benefit from reading this book.
