Neurodevelopment and Schizophrenia (Hardcover, New)

Over the past decade, developmental neurobiology has made important strides towards elucidating the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders. Nowhere has this link between basic science and clinical insights become clearer than in the field of schizophrenia research. In this volume, the editors bring together some of the most active investigators in this field. Each contributor provides a state-of-the-art overview of the relevant research, including directions for further investigation. The book begins with a section on advances in developmental neurobiology. This is followed by sections on etiological and pathophysiological developments, and models that integrate this knowledge. The final section addresses the clinical insights that emerge from the developmental models and sets the scene for future efforts at early detection and prevention of schizophrenia. This book will be valuable to researchers in psychiatry and neurobiology, students in psychology, and all mental health practitioners.
