Some of the chapters also deal with respective experimental and clinical methodology, biomarkers, and translational aspects of drug development.

Reviews for Novel Antischizophrenia Treatments
From the reviews: “The target audience … is primarily researchers in the field of psychopharmacology of psychosis as well as interested psychiatrists and psychologists. … This book will provide readers with the current research issues in the psychopharmacology of schizophrenia from a ‘one disease’ perspective.” (Michael Joel Schrift, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2013)
