Reviews

“The editors and chapter authors have produced an information-filled, well-written, and concise review of these techniques. … Each chapter concludes with timely and pertinent references of the scientific literature. The index section is very helpful, particularly for a book like this. This is an excellent, concise book on psychiatric neurotherapeutics. It's an outstanding review of the literature and is required reading for any psychiatrists involved in the treatment of patients with severe psychiatric disorders.” (Michael Joel Schrift, Doody's Book Reviews, August, 2016)
