Stahl's Essential Psychopharmacology: Neuroscientific Basis and Practical Applications
If you want to understand why a psychiatric drug works – not just what to prescribe – this is the book. Stahl's Essential Psychopharmacology, 5th Edition explains receptor and circuit pharmacology with the full-colour illustrations Dr. Stephen Stahl is famous for, and connects the science to real prescribing decisions.
The 5th edition is thoroughly updated, with new chapters and mechanisms across antidepressants, antipsychotics, mood stabilisers, anxiety, pain, sleep, ADHD, dementia and substance use. It's the companion to the Prescriber's Guide, and the two are best owned together.
