Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references and index
Neurobiology of Brain Disorders is the first book directed primarily at basic scientists
to offer a comprehensive overview of neurological and neuropsychiatric disease. This
book links basic, translational, and clinical research, covering the genetic, developmental,
molecular, and cellular mechanisms underlying all major categories of brain disorders.
It offers students, postdoctoral fellows, and researchers in the diverse fields of
neuroscience, neurobiology, neurology, and psychiatry the tools they need to obtain
a basic background in the major neurological and psychiatric diseases, and to discern
connections between basic research and these relevant clinical conditions. This book
addresses developmental, autoimmune, central, and peripheral neurodegeneration; infectious
diseases; and diseases of higher function. The final chapters deal with broader issues,
including some of the ethical concerns raised by neuroscience and a discussion of
health disparities. Included in each chapter is coverage of the clinical condition,
diagnosis, treatment, underlying mechanisms, relevant basic and translational research,
and key unanswered questions. Written and edited by a diverse team of international
experts, Neurobiology of Brain Disorders is essential reading for anyone wishing to
explore the basic science underlying neurological and neuropsychiatric diseases. Links
basic, translational, and clinical research on disorders of the nervous system, creating
a format for study that will accelerate disease prevention and treatment. Covers a
vast array of neurological disorders, including ADHD, Down syndrome, autism, muscular
dystrophy, diabetes, TBI, Parkinson, Huntington, Alzheimer, OCD, PTSD, schizophrenia,
depression, and pain. Illustrated in full color. Each chapter provides in-text summary
points, special feature boxes, and research questions. Provides an up-to-date synthesis
of primary source material
