Aprašymas

The definitive guide to molecular neuropharmacology--fully updated with the latest research

Starting with the core principles of neuropharmacology, Nestler, Hyman & Malenka's Molecular Neuropharmacology walks you through the neural substrates of drug action and helps you build a confident, working understanding of the neurologic and psychiatric disorders you'll encounter in practice. Each chapter opens with a curated list of key concepts, followed by thorough explanations of each point.

Complete with tables, diagrams, and figures clearly illustrating the intricacies of neurochemistry and molecular neuroscience, this peerless guide reviews the effects of drug action to enhance your understanding of major disease mechanisms, and it explains the pathophysiology and neuropharmacology of all major neurologic and psychiatric disorders. Concise overviews of the effects of drugs and other treatment approaches are presented in a way that boosts your understanding and retention of critical concepts.

Nestler, Hyman, & Malenka's Molecular Neuropharmacology, Fifth Edition, covers:

- General principles of neuropharmacology
- Nervous system function
- Drugs that act on neuronal and glial function
- Major neurotransmitter systems in the brain and spinal cord
