Antipsychotics and Mood Stabilizers: Stahl's Essential Psychopharmacology, 3rd edition (Essential Psychopharmacology Series)

Relying upon the best-selling third edition of Stahl's Essential Psychopharmacology, Dr. Stephen M. Stahl has revised chapters covering antipsychotics and mood stabilizers for this third edition of Antipsychotics and Mood Stabilizers. More than one-third longer than the previous edition, Antipsychotics and Mood Stabilizers is essential reading for professionals treating psychosis and students learning the mechanisms of drug reactions. This updated edition includes advances in neurobiology and recent clinical developments to explain the concepts underlying drug treatment of psychiatric disorders. The fully revised text is complemented by many new illustrations and enhanced to reflect new knowledge and topics not covered in the previous edition. Intended as a primer text covering all aspects of treatment for psychosis and related conditions, this concise volume can nevertheless be read cover to cover by experts and novices alike.
