PSYCHIATRIC PHARMACOGENETICS: from concepts to cases (One)

Psychiatric Pharmacogenetics from concepts to cases is a book written by two authors who are highly distinguished leaders in this cutting edge field. The book gives a synopsis of the history of how the science of pharmacogenetics evolved, how this new science can help address the mounting cost of managing adverse drug events, and explains the physiology of pharmacogenetics – the Cytochrome P450 system. This book is unique in that it is the first of its kind to dedicate a chapter on how adopting pharmacogenetic technology in clinical practice can markedly reduce medico-legal risk, and increase quality of care. It also dedicates chapters on the ethics and social impact of this burgeoning technology. Finally, and certainly not least, this book provides fifteen detailed clinical cases selected from clinic and hospital patients. For the busy psychiatric practitioner, this book promises to advance their knowledge and skills by giving them practical information they can employ immediately.
