DESCRIZIONE

Provides a conceptual framework for understanding and studying the pharmacogenetics of psychotropic drugs, reviews advances in the field, and describes the findings that have already emerged. Coverage extends to antipsychotics, antidepressants, mood stabilizing, cognitive-enhancing and anxiolytic drugs. An essential reference for all clinicians and researchers working in this field.Table of Contents •. List of contributors. . Pt. I. Introduction. . 1.
