Drugs and Behavior
2nd edition
Drugs and Behavior will provide a basic introduction to the biopsychological effects of the major classes of drugs. We’ll discuss the effects of various drugs at the neurochemical and behavioral levels. The first few chapters of this text will lay the groundwork in neuroscience and pharmacology to prepare you for the later chapters when we will discuss specific types of drugs. The material may be difficult, but we encourage you to hang in there and ask for help if you get stuck.
