"This book will provide readers with a contemporary overview of current research on nicotine neurobiology and its role in tobacco dependence as well as its potential therapeutic effects. The book is written by leaders in this field and will prove valuable for those who are developing their own research programs and those who want to obtain a greater understanding of the problematic and therapeutic workings of this molecule in the human brain." (Michael Easton, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2015)

• Preface.- Structure and function of neuronal nicotinic receptors. Genetics of smoking behaviour. Pharmacogenetics of Nicotine and Associated Smoking Behaviors. Heterogeneity Across Brain Regions and Neurotransmitter Interactions. Nicotinic Receptors and Attention. Nicotinic Receptors, Memory, and Hippocampus. A Hierarchical Instrumental Decision Theory of Nicotine Dependence. Smoking Abstinence and Neurocognition: Implications for Cessation and Relapse.
