Great advances have been made in recent years toward a better understanding of the healthy brain and the physical basis of psychiatric disorder. This text brings together contributions from leading international authorities to provide a timely and multidisciplinary overview of this fast developing area. This book provides broad coverage ranging from epilepsy and schizophrenia to basal ganglia disorder and brain lesions. In many cases, a clinically oriented chapter is paired with one that describes the basic science that underpins it, and considerable attention is given to the impact of new technologies, such as structural and functional neuroimaging. This book highlights the basic pathophysiological mechanisms of multifaceted clinical manifestations to provide a valuable review of current neuropsychiatry. It will be welcomed by clinicians, researchers, and students alike from neuroscience to neuropsychology and psychiatry.
