Anxiety
Although everybody had and will experience anxiety, its intensity, frequency and characteristics may vary from what can be considered as "normal" to pathological. The development of benzodiazepine as anxiolytics has been a major step firstly in therapeutics and secondly in the understanding of the associated biological mechanisms. Recently, new drugs without secondary effects of benzodiazepines have been developed. The purpose of the book was to take stock of the present knowledge: clinical aspects of pathological anxiety, neurobiological mechanisms associated with stress and anxiety, molecular targets of potent anxiolytic drugs, new issues and directions.
Forebrain Areas Involved in Pain Processing
Our knowledge of the brain and its structures -- such as the thalamus, hypothalamus and cortex -- has made great strides over the past 15 years. As in other fields, this progress has been due to studies based on a multidisciplinary approach combining modern and traditional investigative methods. The new knowledge has highlighted the part played by some fundamental structures in pain processing. This book reviews the data that has been acquired and the new perspectives it has opened up for studying how the brain processes pain, in both humans and animals. For neurologists, neurobiologists and neurosurgeons.
Peripheral Neurons in Nociception
This book is a review of studies on the physiopharmacology of the peripheral fibres involved in nociception. It examines the substances that are directly or indirectly capable of modifying the activity of these fibres, paying special attention to the part played by physicochemical factors and the sympathetic nervous system. Drawing on the conclusions of eminent pharmacologists, the book not only considers fundamental aspects of the problem but also suggests approaches for research into developing new analgesic molecules. It will be of interest to researchers, pharmacologists, physiologists, physicians and the pharmaceutical industry.
The Pain System in Normal and Pathological States
The last decade has seen much progress in understanding the mechanisms of pain and advances in basic science have seen translational research leading to volunteer studies and clinical trials. Despite this drawing together of molecules and maladies, the basic science can appear overly complex and impenetrabie for clinicians. This book aims to cover key topical molecular, anantomical, physiological, and pharmacological studies on the basic science in a straightforward and accessible manner for all medical and allied professionals with an interest in pain. The book is dedicatod to lean-Marie Besson, who has always allempted to further dialogus between clinicians and basic scientists.

Alcohol and the Addictive Brain
An understanding of the nature and progression of alcohol addiction has emerged: alcoholism as the result of an imbalance in the brain's natural production of neurotransmitters critical to our sense of wellbeing. This imbalance, which an increasing amount of evidence is demonstrating to be genetically influenced, produces a craving temporarily satisfied by drinking. Alcohol and the Addictive Brain is an account of the scientific discoveries concerning alcoholism.

Psychiatric Disorders
Due to their prevalence, pervasiveness and burden inflicted on men and women of today, psychiatric disorders are considered as one of the most important, sever and painful illnesses. This impairment of cognitive, emotional, or behavioural functioning is in some cases tragic. Aside from knowing the physical organic factors, such as infections, endocrinal illnesses or head injuries, the aetiology of psychiatric disorders has remained a mystery. However, recent advances in psychiatry and neuroscience have been successful in discovering subsequent pathophysiology and reaching associated bio-psycho-social factors. This book consists of recent trends and developments in psychiatry from all over th...
