One of the major breakthroughs in psychopharmacology has been  the identification of specific serotonin receptor subtypes as targets  for psychotropic drug development. This volume examines the role of one  of these receptor subtypes, the serotonin 1A receptor, in anxiety,  depression, and other psychiatric disorders and presents extensive  preclinical and clinical studies on the azapirone serotonin 1A  agonists, a new class of drugs that has shown great promise in  treatment of these disorders. Leading experts assess the advantages and  limitations of azapirones as anxiolytics and antidepressants and  explore the potential of these agents for treatment of  obsessive-compulsive disorder and impulse control disorders.

Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in ill-defined psychiatric disorders which are often difficult to detect and consequently problematical to treat, such as Myalgic Encephalitis, postviral fatigue syndrome and chronic fatigue syndrome. Such subthreshold disorders are frequently presented first to the primary care physician. This book reappraises the old related concept of neurasthenia and its relevance to modern-day general practice.
