Description
Animal models of psychiatric disorders are an important means of identifying underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and studying the mode of action and efficacy of psychotherapeutic drugs. This volume features articles on animal models of human psychopathology accompanied by commentaries from established psychiatrists. Experienced researchers discuss in detail animal models of anxiety, depression and mania, which are followed by psychiatric assessments of the relevance and implications of these models to the understanding of human behavioural disorders. Designed to promote informed debate between researchers and practitioners, this book has been designed for psychopharmacologists, psychiatrists, psychologists and all workers in the neurosciences interested in new hypotheses on the pathophysiology of mental disorders and new lines of investigation with laboratory animals.
