The book series
Modern Trends in
Pharmacopsychiatry
(formerly ‘Modern Problems of Pharmacopsychiatry’)
Focussing on the effects of drug treatment on psychiatric and neurological disorders,
this series is concerned with the mechanisms of action of psychotropic
drugs, their adverse effects as well as the science and experience behind the
development of new compounds. On the basis of our growing understanding
of the interaction between physical ill health and psychiatric illness, Modern
Trends in Pharmacopsychiatry y also investigates the biological and psychological
factors that may impact on a patient’s response to psychotropic treatment.
Written by international experts who have contributed to the advances in the
field of pharmacopsychiatry, this series provides cutting-edge research and
clinical information, including the latest developments, methods and limitations
of current clinical trials.
