In this book, leading-edge investigators offer effective strategies to improve current antidepressive therapies and suggest molecular, biological, and genetic approaches that will lead to the development of novel antidepressants. The contributors' critical reviews and commentaries illuminate our understanding of the mechanism(s) responsible for antidepressant action. The book's goal is to move beyond current biogenic amine-based concepts and therapies to the development of new and improved antidepressants that are more effective and have a more rapid onset than current.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"This is a timely, much needed addition to the library of a psychopharmacology researcher who is interested in developing new studies in the field of antidepressant functioning or who needs a thorough update on cutting edge antidepressant pharmacology and theory."-Doody's Health Sciences Book Review Journal
From the Back Cover
In Antidepressants: Current Trends and Future Directions, leading-edge investigators distill the dramatic recent advances in our understanding of the mechanisms responsible for antidepressant action. The authoritative contributors offer strategies to improve current therapies grounded on biogenic amine-based concepts. By departing from traditional strategies, the authors offer alternatives to therapies that often work too slowly or not at all, and suggest how the many recent advances in molecular biology and genetics might best be exploited in the design of optimal new therapies. Antidepressants: Current Trends and Future Directions summarizes novel concepts of antidepressant therapy that attempt to exploit provocative new insights from the laboratory to improve current, biogenic amine-based therapies. Readers will find the book an exceptional resource in opening the door to the development of newer and more effective antidepressant therapies.
