The 1st Edition of Anandamide in Health and Disease, edited by Bernard Le Foll, provides a reference work focused on endocannabinoid signaling in physiological function and disease. Intended for biological and biomedical sciences researchers at the PhD level and above, the volume begins by explaining fundamental background biology, cellular regulation, biosynthesis, enzymatic degradation, and physiological modulation of anandamide.
The text organizes its chapters into two distinct main sections, advancing from basic cellular mechanisms to clinical disease applications. The thematic arcs encompass psychiatric conditions including mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and psychosis, while also addressing substance use disorders and underlying neurochemical pathways.
Highlighting specific disease mechanisms, Luke J. Ney and Allison Matthews contribute a chapter detailing anandamide's role in stress, fear, and PTSD. The resulting reference equips specialized researchers with a grounded summary of endocannabinoid signaling alterations across psychiatric and physical health contexts.
