Beskrivning
This book addresses a growing need for accessible information on the neuroscience of addiction. In the past decade, neuroscientific research has greatly advanced our understanding of the brain mechanisms of addiction. However this information still remains largely confined to scientific outlets. As legislation continues to evolve and the stigma surrounding addiction persists, new findings on the impact of substances on the brain are an important public health issue. Francesca Mapua Filbey gives readers an overview of research on addiction including classic theories as well as current neuroscientific studies. A variety of textual supports - including a glossary, learning objectives and review questions - help students better reinforce their reading and make the text a ready-made complement to undergraduate and graduate courses on addiction.

Recensioner i media

'Francesca Filbey's book, intended for an interdisciplinary audience, bridges concepts in neuroscience with the clinical presentation of addiction. It is logically organized into chapters that describe each progressive stage of the addiction cycle in terms of theoretical perspectives, preclinical models, and human behavior. The text combines classic knowledge with current findings from novel methodologies, particularly in human neuroimaging, that facilitates the understanding of addiction as a brain disorder.' Eric J. Nestler, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
