The American Psychiatric Press Textbook of NeuropsychiatryStuart C. Yudofsky, Robert E. Hales Written and edited by an internationally renowned group of experts including 39 new authors, the Third Edition has been extensively revised to provide psychiatrists, neurologists, neuropsychologists, internists, and residents with the latest developments in research, clinical practice, and diagnostic technology. With the addition of eight new chapters, increased emphasis has been placed on molecular and intracellular aspects of neuropsychiatry and the role of functional imaging in neuropsychiatric disorders. In addition, this text is lavishly illustrated with more than 180 tables and over 200 figures, including many full-color images that will maintain this textbook's standing as the most important source for neuropsychiatry. |
