The field of biomedical research on alcoholism has developed at an unsurpassed speed in recent years. Today new medications and treatment strategies are available and new leads are currently tested in multi-center trials. This book gives a comprehensive overview about different neurotransmitter/peptide systems involved in relapse behavior. The editors - a basic preclinical researcher and a clinical researcher - and some of the most distinguished experts in the field compiled all new available preclinical and clinical data and offer a complete picture on modern relapse prevention. Without a doubt this book provides an entire overview about the topic which will be of interest to the basic researcher, the clinician as well as to the postgraduate and graduate student.
