Description: POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER

This book provides a comprehensive look at Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), a key neuropsychiatric disorder. It examines the neurobiological basis of PTSD and how our understanding of its basic elements has informed new and existing treatment options.

The text begins with a section on animal models in PTSD research, which have served as the foundation for much of our neurobiological information. Subsequent chapters delve into applications of clinical neuroscience in PTSD. The final part explores treatments and the translation of basic and clinical research into practical intervention methods.

With its unique approach from basic science to translational interventions, this book is an invaluable resource for researchers, students, and clinicians dealing with this complex disorder.
