    Toward a New Psychobiology

    by Peter C. Whybrow, Hagop S. Akiskal, William T. McKinney Jr. ...
    Series series Medicine (R0)

The latter is our particular focus, for the simple reason that it is more common and thus more is known about it. Our approach owes much to Adolf Meyer, who first used the term psychobiology. It was he who emphasized in a ... Read more
