Book Description:
This ground-breaking book has been in print since 1974. Earlier editions of the book were seminal in delineating brain-behavior relationships; the actual version expands this theme using the most recent data from the neurosciences & molecular biology. Earlier editions focused on the behavioral aspects of neurological conditions & the neurological aspects of psychiatric disorders. While this is still the focus of the book it has become clear from many research studies that the environmental events & emotions can alter brain structure , thus finally bringing a scientific basis into psychological events. We have also added a valuable clinical chapter on differentiating the etiologies of disturbed behavior. This complete text by two authors avoids the deluge of facts & duplicationof material often found in multi-authored texts into leave the leader with a consistent approach into understanding & diagnosing disturbances of behavior. While the book is directed towards medical students, residents, psychiatrists & neurologists it has been heavily used by many varied health professionals, pyschologists ,and lawyers.
