Neurobiology of Depression PDF

Series Preface

The Frontiers in Neuroscience Series presents the insights of experts on emerging experimental technologies and theoretical concepts that are, or will be, at the vanguard of Neuroscience.

The books cover new and exciting multidisciplinary areas of brain research, and describe breakthroughs in fields like visual, gustatory, auditory, olfactory neuroscience, as well as aging biomedical imaging. Recent books cover the rapidly evolving fields of multisensory processing, depression, and different aspects of reward.

Each book is edited by experts and consists of chapters written by leaders in a particular field. Books are richly illustrated and contain comprehensive bibliographies. Chapters provide substantial background material relevant to the particular subject.

The goal is for these books to be the references every neuroscientist uses in order to acquaint themselves with new information and methodologies in brain research. We view our task as series editors to produce outstanding products that contribute to the broad field of Neuroscience. Now that the chapters are available online, the effort put in by us, the publisher, the book editors, and individual authors will contribute to the further development of brain research. To the extent that you learn from these books we will have succeeded.
