Description
The Handbook of Stress and the Brain focuses on the impact of stressful events on the functioning of the central nervous system;
how stress affects molecular and cellular processes in the brain, and in turn, how these brain processes determine our perception of
and reactivity to, stressful challenges - acutely and in the long-run.
Written for a broad scientific audience, the Handbook comprehensively
reviews key principles and facts to provide a clear overview of the interdisciplinary field of stress. The work aims to bring together
the disciplines of neurobiology, physiology, immunology, psychology and psychiatry, to provide a reference source for both the non-clinical
and clinical expert, as well as serving as an introductory text for novices in this field of scientific inquiry.
Part 1 addresses
basic aspects of the neurobiology of the stress response including the involvement of neuropeptide, neuroendocrine and neurotransmitter
systems and its corollaries regarding gene expression and behavioural processes such as cognition, motivation and emotionality.
Audience
Researchers and clinicians in the fields of neuroscience, neurobiology, physiology, immunology, psychology, and psychiatry.
