The book "Transgenic and Knockout Models of Neuropsychiatric Disorders" offers a comprehensive analysis of the genetic models developed to study complex neuropsychiatric disorders. It is aimed at neuroscientists and researchers focused on the genetic underpinnings of neurobehavioral disorders. The authors, leading experts in their field, examine the validity of these models in relation to human diseases and highlight how genetic abnormalities in transgenic and knockout models reflect neuropsychiatric disorders. The discussion covers a variety of topics, including cognitive dysfunctions, psychotic disorders, anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorders. Additionally, fundamental neurobiological issues relevant to understanding these conditions are addressed. The book not only provides a systematic evaluation of the models but also contemporary discussions on the relevance of animal studies for understanding human behavior and psychiatric disorders.
