Abstract: | Handbook of Endocannabinoid Function in the Central Nervous System offers a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach to understanding the role of the endocannabinoid system in the functions of the central nervous system. In recent years, brain endocannabinoids have emerged as key modulators of brain function and behavior; endocannabinoids are now considered and used for the development of selective and specific compounds able to treat several CNS diseases and conditions. This new volume brings together the most influential and internally recognized experts in the field to provide a detailed overview of physiological and pathophysiological roles of endocannabinoids in CNS activity. The book begins by covering the history, functional anatomy, and neurophysiology of the endocannabinoid system, moving on to assess endocannabinoid roles across human lifespans and in behavioral control. The final sections of the book explore the use of endocannabinoids in psychiatric and neurological disorders. is a vital resource for neuroscientists, neuropharmacologists, and neuropathologists, as well as any researcher seeking detailed discussions of brain endocannabinoid functions.
