Biological Psychiatry, 3rd Edition

“This book therefore may be valuable to those engaged in clinical practice who wish to familiarize themselves with some of the basic concepts behind modern biological psychiatric research and the recent history of the field.”  (Psychological Medicine, 2012)

"If you are going to choose where to fork out the money, it would be here, for the most practical understanding of brain-behavior science, and these authors I am sure will continue to be leaders in this field, with perhaps only Lishman challenging them for the buck." (Metapsychology, 25 June 2011)

 "As in the earlier editions of the book, there are comprehensive reviews and explanations of the latest advances in neurochemistry, neuroanatomy, genetics and brain imaging descriptions not only of methodologies but also of the application of these in clinical settings." (AllVoices, 16 February 2011)

"An important contribution that should be read by psychopharmacologists, psychiatrists, neurologists and neuroscientists who wish to obtain an interesting and well-written account of the subject." (Human Psychopharmacology, 2010)

"Writing for medical students and for researchers and practitioners in fields that touch upon mental health, they begin by exploring principles of brain function and structure from perspectives of genetics, physiology, chemistry, and anatomy. Then they consider important brain-behavior relationships, and classifications and clinical investigations. Having set the stage, they proceed to describe biological aspects of personality disorders, anxiety disorders, the schizophrenias, affective disorders, the addictions and disorders of motivation, epilepsy, and the dementias."
