Neuromodulation offers new possibilities for the treatment of psychiatric disorders such as depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), addiction, eating disorders and autism. This work presents the history of this unique specialty and investigates current techniques and ethical challenges. With a wealth of illustrations and detailed anatomical diagrams, it provides essential information for medical practitioners, as well as anyone else interested in the fascinating advances being made in neuroscience today. « I like the book as it provides a very nice overview of psycho- surgery in general. It is easy to understand for any (para)medical practitioner, but even specialists in the field may learn new things. They may also enjoy looking the well-known and less-known figures which illustrate the book. » Professor Bart Nuttin « Reading this book is like reading an anthology, or rather an encyclopaedia of the field of psychiatric surgery, spanning more than a century. This is a work with an unprecedented degree of erudition and knowledge, and the subject is presented in a didactic, scholar, and scientific manner, and is extensively referenced and illustrated. If only one book is to be read by anybody interested in this field, regardless of specialty, this is The Book to read. » Professor Marwan Hariz. 606 $aPsychiatry 606 $aNeurology  606 $aNeurosurgery 606 $aEthics 606 $aPsychiatry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H53003 606 $aNeurology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H36001 606 $aNeurosurgery$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H39000 606 $aEthics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E14000 615 0$aPsychiatry. 615 0$aNeurology . 615 0$aNeurosurgery. 615 0$aEthics. 615 14$aPsychiatry. 615 24$aNeurology. 615 24$aNeurosurgery. 615 24$aEthics. 676 $a170 676 $a610 676 $a616.8 676 $a616.89 700 $aLévêque$b Marc$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0755774 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300068203321 996 $aPsychosurgery$91523008 997 $aUNINA
