Description
Mood disorders are the most common of major psychiatric illnesses. Similar rates of mood in every race, culture and geographical location have bolstered the suspicion that manic-depressive disorder has a biological and, very probably, a genetic basis. This study provides up-to-date coverage of research into genetic involvement in affective disorders, including research findings, procedures and strategies.
