Publisher's Synopsis
This title in the "Neuropsychiatry" series discusses the neurological and psychiatric basis and treatment possibilities of anti-social behaviour and other personality disorders, both idiopathic and those associated with substance abuse, attention deficit, schizophrenia, frontal and temporal lobe epilepsy. This reflects the awareness of the structural, biochemical and pharmacologic interactions of this group of patients.;Although the subject is firmly grounded in science, the approach is practical and should be of relevance to the clinician in his or her daily practice.
