Abstract

This paperback publication has 428 pages of text, an additional 131 pages of references and an 18-page subject index. The text is organized in 10 chapters, each liberally endowed with relevant figures and tables. The first 3 chapters (72 pages) are very useful because they contain numerous definitions and introduce the reader to neuroscientific and pharmacological topics that appear throughout the text. Chapters 2 (Basic Neurosciences) and 3 (Basic Pharmacology) contain only general information on many topics, but they contribute to the reader's understanding of subsequent material.
