Neural inputs to the medial hypothalamic defensive systemThis Handbook brings together and integrates comprehensively the core approaches to fear and anxiety. Its four sections: Animal models; neural systems; pharmacology; and clinical approaches, provide a range of perspectives that interact to produce new light on these important and sometimes dysfunctional emotions. Fear and anxiety are analyzed as patterns that have evolved on the basis of their adaptive functioning in response to threat. These patterns are stringently selected, providing a close fit with environmental situations and events; they are highly conservative across mammalian speciHandbook of behavioral neuroscience ;v. 17.Animal models in researchAnxiety disordersChemotherapyAnxiety disordersPhysiological aspectsResearchAnxietyPhysiological aspectsResearchAnxietyPhysiological aspectsFearPhysiological aspectsAnimal models in research.Anxiety disordersChemotherapy.Anxiety disordersPhysiological aspectsResearch.AnxietyPhysiological aspectsResearch.AnxietyPhysiological aspects.FearPhysiological aspects.616.8522Blanchard Robert J79560MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784761303321Handbook of anxiety and fear3781788UNINA
