Really enjoyed the read， granted I had to do a lot of other reading to supplement this and help me better understand the concepts！ Prob would've been easier to understand if I had read this while I was in school。 Really enjoyed the read， granted I had to do a lot of other reading to supplement this and help me better understand the concepts！ Prob would've been easier to understand if I had read this while I was in school。 。。。more

A través de gráficos， metáforas y el grado justo de redundancia han conseguido un manual realmente didáctico para una materia muy compleja。

I'm finished， at last！ There is a lot of information in this book and I did learn a lot and I will refer to it in the future。 I feel as though I'd like to get this information a little closer to the original research， but that would be a daunting task。 Stahl does distill the basic research down， but I still feel he's oversimplifying the science， but encouraging unduly complicated treatments。 And， unlike most psychiatrists I know， I hate the diagrams！ If I never see another one of those diagrams I'm finished， at last！ There is a lot of information in this book and I did learn a lot and I will refer to it in the future。 I feel as though I'd like to get this information a little closer to the original research， but that would be a daunting task。 Stahl does distill the basic research down， but I still feel he's oversimplifying the science， but encouraging unduly complicated treatments。 And， unlike most psychiatrists I know， I hate the diagrams！ If I never see another one of those diagrams again， my life will be so much better。 。。。more

Great book。 Wish it had more notes on off-label strategies for pediatrics。 Still a wonderful resource for novice psychopharm prescribers like myself。

We used the 2013 new edition。 Stahl made the contents approachable and friendly。 Pharmacology isn't that painful after all。 We used the 2013 new edition。 Stahl made the contents approachable and friendly。 Pharmacology isn't that painful after all。 。。。more

Good intro to a diverse array of psychopharmacological topics， though somewhat outdated。 For instance， aripiprazole， commercially known as Abilify， was identified as a compound being researched as of the publication， whereas it is now widely prescribed。A few minor gripes: I don't mind the informal language as such—in fact， I legitimately laughed when I saw the phrase "whining for dopamine" in the chapter on drugs of abuse—but was somewhat irked by occasional undesirable imprecision in the langua Good intro to a diverse array of psychopharmacological topics， though somewhat outdated。 For instance， aripiprazole， commercially known as Abilify， was identified as a compound being researched as of the publication， whereas it is now widely prescribed。A few minor gripes: I don't mind the informal language as such—in fact， I legitimately laughed when I saw the phrase "whining for dopamine" in the chapter on drugs of abuse—but was somewhat irked by occasional undesirable imprecision in the language being used。Also， no footnotes。 I couldn't for instance find where the author had gotten the amazing assertion that 20% of federal disability days are from schizophrenia， though I later found evidence for it。This was an amazingly fast read though。After you read this， you should have a good sense of direction。 Should of course be supplemented with more recent and in-depth knowledge where necessary。 As of this writing， e。g。 Encyclopedia of Psychopharmacology is up to date。 。。。more

A perfect primer for study， with Stahl's famously easy-to-understand diagrams throughout。 Despite the title， don't expect to be able to understand every possible drug action after reading this - the 'basis' part is fantastic if basic， but the 'practical applications' should definately be considered a jumping-off point rather than an end in themselves。 Those looking for a textbook for out-of-home study might be better off investing in some of the separate volumes of the Essential Psychopharmacolo A perfect primer for study， with Stahl's famously easy-to-understand diagrams throughout。 Despite the title， don't expect to be able to understand every possible drug action after reading this - the 'basis' part is fantastic if basic， but the 'practical applications' should definately be considered a jumping-off point rather than an end in themselves。 Those looking for a textbook for out-of-home study might be better off investing in some of the separate volumes of the Essential Psychopharmacology series， as this one is perfectly large enough to kill somebody with if aimed correctly。 。。。more
