Résumé : Dr Stahl's books occupy a central position as core educational resources in the psychopharmacology literature. Building on Dr Stahl's exceptional ability to communicate complex principles and make them easily understandable, this book offers 150 self-assessment questions derived from the Neuroscience Education Institute's Master Psychopharmacology Program. The self-assessment questions will help the reader to identify areas of competence or the need for further study and offers CME credit. In addition, the questions themselves are learning exercises: each question is followed by a thorough explanation of the correct and incorrect answer choices. Readers can work through the questions to prepare for formal tests, including American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology examinations and to achieve MoC credits towards ongoing ABPN re-accreditation. The questions are also ideal training tools for those working in related clinical fields and in industry.
