This book is an essential resource for students, researchers, and clinicians interested in the field of neuropharmacology, and it is regarded as one of the best books on the subject.
The authors of Molecular Neuropharmacology are experts in the field of neuroscience, with extensive experience in research, teaching, and clinical practice. Eric J. Nestler is the Nash Family Professor of Neuroscience and Director of the Friedman Brain Institute at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Paul J. Kenny is the Ward-Coleman Chair in Translational Neuroscience and the Director of the Experimental Therapeutics Institute at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Scott J. Russo is an Assistant Professor of Neuroscience and Psychiatry at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Anne Schaefer is an Associate Professor of Neuroscience and Psychiatry at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
The book's introduction provides an overview of the basic principles of neuropharmacology, including the molecular targets of drugs, the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs, and the ways in which drugs affect the nervous system. It also covers the use of animal models to study the effects of drugs on the nervous system, and the application of neuropharmacology to the treatment of neurological and psychiatric disorders.
