Hormone/Behavior Relations of Clinical Importance is an authoritative selection of relevant chapters on the endocrine systems interacting with brain and behavior derived from Hormones, Brain
and Behaviour, Second Edition. This comprehensive single volume reference offers an overview of neuroendocrinological topics, approaching the subject from the perspective of hormone-brain
function, hormone-behavior relations, sex differences, and the impact on various diseases/pathologies.
The first part Endocrine Systems Interacting with Brain and Behavior focuses on the normal interactions among endocrine axes, brain function, and behavioral components. This is followed by the
second part Endocrinologically Important Behavioral Syndromes, which focuses on aberrant hormone-brain-behavior interactions resulting in identifiable pathologies or syndromes. The essential
basic science background and the broad coverage of clinical conditions make Hormone/Behavior Relations of Clinical Importance relevant to clinicians as well as researchers and basic scientists.
