Drugs and Human Behavior Zusammenfassung

Drugs and Human Behavior Tibor Palfai

Drugs and Human Behavior provides unique historical background and introduces students to psychoactive drugs' pharmacology and the mental illnesses they are used to treat. This text is ideal for upper-level courses that take a psychopharmacological approach (rather than a social or health approach) and emphasize practical applications.
