Description
This book provides a unique and timely multidisciplinary synthesis of our current knowledge of the anatomy, pharmacology, physiology and
behavioral data of the serotonin (5-HT)-dopamine (DA) interactions. Central serotonergic and dopaminergic systems play a critical role
in the regulation of normal and abnormal behaviors. Moreover, recent evidence suggests that the dysfunction of the DA and 5-HT neurotransmitter
systems contribute to various mental disorders including depression, schizophrenia, drug addiction and Parkinson's disease. This extremely
important topic is of wide interest within the scientific community, with relevance not only to specialists but also to general practitioners
and students. The book provides a valuable contribution to the debate on new pharmacological approaches for several psychopathological
states, with contributions from expert neuroscientists and pharmacologists who comprehensively survey the most significant currently
active areas of dopamine/serotonin interactions.
Audience
Clinical Psychiatrists, Primary Care Physicians, and specialists in the behavioral health community. Also Graduate students and researchers
involved with serotonergic and dopaminergic systems. Possibly Pharmaceutical companies who market dopaminergic and serotonergic drugs
