The field of molecular genetics is undergoing an explosion, not only in its fundamental understanding of the genetic processes but also in the potential applications as research tools and therapeutic approaches to many disease areas.

This book examines the place of molecular genetics in our understanding of the basic mechanisms of mental disorders and their role in highlighting new drug targets.
