Summary
"Neurobehavioral Genetics: Methods and Applications covers classical and contemporary approaches to the study of the brain and behavior, including basic and clinical research. This book is designed as a reference for investigators who want to incorporate genetic methods into neurobehavioral research. A broad spectrum of methods is included, unlike any other publication currently in print."--BOOK JACKET.
