内容説明

Based on the annual "Bio-clinical Interface" conferences, this book is an interface between a wide range of disciplines and a point of interaction between several groups of people: psychiatrists, basic scientists, as well as researchers and decision-makers from the pharmaceutical industry. The chapters provide an up-to-date synthesis of the many facets of current research in psychiatry, and is logically organized around three major themes: New Prospects in Psychopharmacology, Recent Advances in Psychiatry, and Drug Treatment in Psychiatry. The scope and variety of the book reflect the changing aspect of psychiatry, today fertilized by tools and theories from the neurosciences, and bind these many facets into a coherent whole. This close integration of several approaches tests current scientific hypotheses, and establishes a working collaboration between psychiatric research centers and the pharmaceutical industry.
