Short description:

How does neuroscience explain changes in consciousness? What happens in the brain during states like anxiety? Many people experience symptoms such as lack of motivation or feelings of depression at some point. Psychiatric disorders are complex psychopathological phenomena that require precise observation and assessment. This book presents psychopathology with its neuroscientific foundations in a comprehensive and accessible manner. All symptoms are described systematically and clearly. Case descriptions deepen observation and clinical experience. Each chapter includes definitions, clinical perspectives, and diagnostic approaches. Neuroscientific models are illustrated for each symptom group and specific aspects.



The book is aimed at psychiatrists, other professionals in psychosocial care, and interested students. It assists practitioners in providing patients with clear and accurate explanations of their symptoms. The new edition has been thoroughly revised and updated, incorporating the latest research findings on exciting current topics, such as e.g. hallucinations and deep learning.
