Molecular Neuropharmacology: A Foundation for Clinical Neuroscience (2nd Edition) by Eric J. Nestler, Steven E. Hyman, Robert Malenka

 

ISBN: 9780071481274

 

Overview :

 

Molecular Neuropharmacology provides an in-depth understanding of the molecular processes underlying the functioning of the nervous system in both healthy and diseased states. This comprehensive textbook bridges neuropharmacology and clinical neuroscience, offering a clear explanation of nerve cell receptors, signal transduction, and the molecular genetics affected by these systems. With over 300 full-color illustrations and detailed didactic text boxes, this book is an essential resource for anyone seeking to connect molecular neuropharmacology with clinical applications in neuroscience.

 

You will learn how the malfunctioning of neural systems leads to various neurological disorders and the pharmacological treatments associated with them. This second edition has been praised for its clarity, relevance, and usefulness as a foundational text for understanding neuropharmacology.

 

Key Features:

 

  • Comprehensive coverage of neuropharmacological systems and their disorders
  • Full-color illustrations and didactic text boxes
  • Clear explanations linking molecular processes to clinical conditions
