Editorial Reviews
Review
“Zorumski and Rubin have written a delightful volume proposing a new and intriguing theory regarding the pathogenesis of mental disorders… It certainly presents an impressive summary of research into brain function and structure compiled thus far and discusses areas of future research. Additionally, I think Psychiatry and Clinical Neuroscience should be a must-read for psychiatric residents and those clinicians who want to peek into the future. I found the arguments compelling and was excited to read this book!” – David L. Dunner, MD, Journal of Clinical Psychiatry
.”..here the authors’ enthusiasm for network neuroscience, their impatience with outdated modes of psychiatric practice, and their excitement for the future of psychiatry come into their own. The enthusiasm is especially palpable throughout the book and one hopes it will prove infectious for the intended audience. Indeed should the book be successful in luring future clinician-scientists into the profession, it would have undoubtedly achieved some of its most important aims.” — Mikail Rubinov, Psychological Medicine
