Produktbeschreibung

Psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) has developed rapidly in the last four decades. As a multidisciplinary area, PNI may provide a scientific basis for mind-body relationships toward the development of personalized and systems medicine. In Psychoneuroimmunology:Methods and Protocols, expert researchers in the field detail methods and protocols geared toward the development of integrative and individualized therapeutics in multiple dimensions from drugs to behaviors. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology(TM) series format, the chapters include the kind of detailed description and implementation advice that is crucial for getting optimal results in the laboratory.

Thorough and intuitive, Psychoneuroimmunology:Methods and Protocols aids scientists in continuing to study holistic views for the translation of psychoneuroimmunology into better preventive and personalized medical practice.

Rezensionen

From the book reviews:
"This is a strategically developed and organized book that compiles the numerous divisions of psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) and aims to relate them to clinical application. ... This book may serve as an attractive authority for those who are dedicated to learning about the integration of body-mind relationships in the realm of medicine. ... It is a valuable tool for students, scientists, physicians, and all those who are on the forefront of medicine." (Sheila Lahijani, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2013)
