About this Series Current Topics in Behavioral Neurosciences provides critical and comprehensivediscussions of the most significant areas of behavioral neuroscience research, written by leading international authorities. Each volume offers an informative andcontemporary account of its subject, making it an unrivalled reference source. Titles in this series are available in both print and electronic formats. With the development of new methodologies for brain imaging, genetic andgenomic analyses, molecular engineering of mutant animals, novel routes for drugdelivery, and sophisticated cross-species behavioral assessments, it is now possibleto study behavior relevant to psychiatric and neurological diseases and disorderson the physiological level. The Behavioral Neurosciences series focuses on‘‘translational medicine’’ and cutting-edge technologies. Preclinical and clinicaltrials for the development of new diagnostics and therapeutics as well asprevention efforts are covered whenever possible.
