Description
This fascinating volume examines the ways in which drugs can influence the appetite and the effects that food itself can have on the body, thus covering both the pharmacology of feeding and the action of foodstuffs as pharmacological agents. The distinguished contributors review the underlying neurophysiology and neurochemistry of eating, the effects of a variety of drugs on normal feeding and the application of these drugs in clinical practice, and the role of diet in senile dementia, migraine, and other adverse reactions. This book will be of value to a wide rage of professionals, including physicians, neuroscientists, psychiatrists, psychologists, dieticians, and pharmacologists.
