"Psychiatrists, neurologists, neuropsychologists, cognitive neuroscientists, clinical psychologists and pharmacologists will welcome The Neuroscience of Hallucinations as a vital guide to the current state and promising future of their shared field. All researchers who are interested in the brain and behavior will expand their knowledge base reading this superb book. Neuroscience of Hallucinations represents an excellent, unique book, which is a real treat for all experts frm the field of neuroscience, clinicians as well as basic scientists." (Prof. Dalibor Karlovic, Alcoholism and Psychiatry Research, Vol. 51 (2), 2015) "This volume provides a unique, comprehensive, multifaceted perspective on hallucinations. The editors have brought together an international cast of authors to provide 27 chapters, organized into 5 parts. ... Clinicians may particularly enjoy learning more about the assessment of hallucinations. ... The Neuroscience of Hallucinations provides a welcome and valuable collection of works on hallucinatory experience that is unprecedented in its scope." (Robert M. Bilder, Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology, Vol. 26 (5), August, 2013) "This superb book summarizes the state of neuroscience of the fascinating phenomenon of hallucinations. ... this is a welcome addition to psychiatry and clinical neuroscience. ... the editors and chapter authors have produced a brilliant review of the latest research in this burgeoning area. ... psychiatrists, psychologists, neuroscientists, and graduate students would benefit from this timely and comprehensive review. ... All researchers who are interested in the brain and behavior will expand their knowledge base reading this superb book." (Michael Joel Schrift, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2013)
