Many people living with epilepsy also suffer from debilitating psychiatric and cognitive disorders. While these comorbidities have been recognized for centuries, their causation, and relationship to the epilepsy remains clouded in mystery. This volume highlights recent knowledge and findings as well as controversies in our current understanding of behavioral and psychiatric comorbidities of epilepsy.

Discovery science chapters.- Effects of AEDs on behaviour.- How to separate effects of seizures when studying behaviour.- Depression-like behaviour in epilepsy models.- Are behavioural deficits core components of epilepsy? .- Does stress trigger seizures: evidence from animal models?.- Early life stress and epilepsy.- disease models and epilepsy.- Disease modification in epilepsy: behavioural accompaniments.- Clinical chapters.- Do psychotropic drugs cause epileptic seizures? A review of the available evidence. Peri-ictal and para-ictal psychiatric phenomena: a relatively common yet unrecognized disorder.- Can we anticipate and prevent the occurrence of iatrogenic psychiatric events caused by antiepileptic drugs and epilepsy surgery?.- Are psychiatric disorders a risk for the development of treatment-resistant epilepsy? Temporal lobectomy: does it worsen or improve presurgical psychiatric disorders?.- Suicidality in epilepsy: does it share common pathogenic mechanisms with epilepsy?.- Psychotic disorders in epilepsy: do they differ from primary psychosis?.- Do neurobiologic aspects of primary psychiatric disorders account for the relatively high prevalence of psychiatric comorbidities in epilepsy?.- Are psychogenic non-epileptic seizures really the expression of a psychogenic process?
