Each clinical disorder is tackled from the angles of neuroanatomy, physiology, and biochemistry, with the details of neurotransmission receiving special attention. The book emphasizes inherited and acquired disorders arising secondary to biochemical and clinical disturbances. Scattered throughout the text are illustrative case histories relevant to each section. The book includes a listing of laboratory investigations applicable in the diagnosis of patients with psychiatric consequences of disorders of the developing brain, including the anatomical, biochemical, and cellular basis of fetal brain development. --"Provides an overview of psychiatric disorders with a biochemical basis, together with those biological disorders which have a psychiatric component. The author is particularly interested in the association between often relatively small changes in those biochemical indices routinely available from any clinical chemistry laboratory and the aberrations of mood which are revealed only after listening to the patient's story. Eleven chapters examine metabolic, biochemical and endocrine disturbances and includes sections on pharmacological, toxicological and nutritional aspects, and laboratory investigations."-Book News--TABLE OF CONTENTS: Foreword; Preface; 1 Introduction 2 The complexity of the central nervous system 3 Neurotransmitters, neuronal systems and subcortical nuclei 4 Neurotransmitters and psychiatric disorders 5 Neuroendocrinological aspects of psychiatric disorders 6 Psychiatric disorders and clinical chemistry 7 Psychiatric side-effects of drugs, plants, fungi and dinoflagellates 8 Munchausen syndrome and related disorders 9 Laboratory investigations of psychiatric disorders 10 Psychiatric consequences of disorders of the developing brain 11 Conclusions; Abbreviations; References; Index--with a bonus offer--
