More than 200 two-color illustrations clarify key concepts. Questions and answers at the end of each chapter facilitate review and board preparation. Readers will also have online access to the complete, fully searchable text and a quiz bank of over 150 questions at www.neuroscienceofclinicalpsychiatry.com.
