This text first appeared in 1982 and quickly established itself as a classic work in the psychology and neuroscience literature. It presented an innovative and at times controversial theory of anxiety and the brain systems, especially the septo-hippocampal system, that subserves it. This second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated, and draws upon extensive reviews of data from the ethology of defence, learning theory, the psychopharmacology of anti-anxiety drugs, anxiety disorders, and clinical and laboratory analysis of amnesia. The cognitive and behavioural functions in anxiety of the septo-hippocampal system and the amygdala are extensively analyzed, as are their separate roles in memory and fear. Their functions are related to a hierarchy of additional structures that control other forms of defensive behaviour. The resulting theory is applied to the typology, symptoms and therapy of anxiety and phobic disorders, and to the symptoms of amnesia.
