Summary Although each human being is a unique mixture of positive and negative traits and behaviors, the question remains: What is the neurobiological basis for each individual's makeup? For example, why does one person suffer from a disorder and another lives free of maladies? This book addresses a range of psychological traits and psychiatric disorders.
