In Beyond Prozac, Samuel Barondes explains the science underlying rational design of the next generation of antidepressive agents, and how we have learned what we know about the molecular basis of the neuropharmacological treatment of mood disorders. Barondes is a pioneer of molecular science, and he presents many case studies throughout the book to help readers understand the stakes and impact of mood disorders, and the scope of our current and potential abilities to intervene and mend clinical depression and anxiety disorders.
Samuel H. Barondes, M.D. is Jeanne and Sanford Robertson Professor and Director of the Center for Neurobiology and Psychiatry at the University of California, San Francisco. A leading authority on the application of molecular biology to psychiatry, he is a member of the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences, and recently served as Chair of the Board of Scientific Counselors of the National Institute of Mental Health. His books include Molecules and Mental Illness and Mood Genes: Hunting for Origins of Mania and Depression, both of which were selected by the Dana Alliance for Brain Initiatives as among the 35 "Great Brain Books."
