Handbook of the behavioral neurobiology of serotonin / edited by Christian P. Müller and Barry L. Jacobs.

"Serotonin is one of the most important neurotransmitters in the brain, with many pharmacotherapies based on influencing its activity. The serotonergic system of the brain is crucially involved in the organization of virtually all behaviors and in the regulation of emotion and mood. The last de...
