Review # 1 was written on 2014-08-03 00:00:00 Lisa Newsome Well, I just finished a CNS drugs module. It was hell and really interesting at the same time. I only say it was hell because I study my butt off and the rewards I reap grade wise are kind of sparse. I hate pharmacy school for that one reason, but uh....anyway...I'm going to try to keep reading this nerdy book. My favorite "mental illness" is schizophrenia. it's just really interesting. i can't fully understand it myself but watching A Beautiful Mind gave me a good idea. Since I had no remote idea about what the movie was about, I really thought what was happening was real. One thing I took away from the class (among other things): don't mix booze and benzodiazepines (Heath Ledger).

Review # 2 was written on 2017-06-03 00:00:00 David Sutherland A well-fortified and thorough introduction to molecular and cellular approaches to neuropharmacology. This classic and well-rounded text presumes little initial knowledge of neurobiology on the part of the reader. Cooper thus facilitates a review of neuropharm for those new to the field, as well as those looking for a refresher on the bases of biochemical mechanisms underlying neural transmission. Unfortunately, the text is decidedly lacking in figures and often fails to flesh out definitions. The Biochemical Basis... could certainly benefit from a bit of heft added by a glossary and supplementary figures. However, Cooper provides an engaging jumping-off-point for neuropharmacologically curious readers. Would be of great use to any molecular or cellular neuroscientist as a top-shelf reference material.
