| Summary |
Our scientific approach to depression depends on the theoretical framework available for depression and its etiology, and on the tools we have to investigate brain function. The implication of this means that models of depression will change with time. This book brings together recent updates on the main themes of depression research, presented by active researchers. This book will be of immense value to researchers working in the field, as well as clinicians and trainees in understanding the rationale of new diagnostic and treatment approaches. Biologists, pharmacologists and physicians will also benefit from the data on current depression research |
