Abstract

The first issue of Volume 6 of the International Journal of Neurology (1967) was dedicated to biological psychiatry. It opened with editorials in Spanish and English and gathered significant international contributions examining the biological bases of mental illness and the emerging role of psychopharmacology in psychiatry. The issue included discussions on the classification of psychiatric disorders in relation to the use of psychotropic drugs (Avrutsky), the place of biological psychiatry in modern psychosis treatment (Hoff), and the fundamental mechanisms of psychoactive drugs (Carlsson). Regional perspectives were presented through a study on biological psychiatry in Thailand (Ratanakorn). Further articles explored the treatment of depressive states (Sargant), the excretion of indoleamines in schizophrenia, and the therapeutic use of psychotropic drugs in managing this disorder (Bueno and Himwich). The issue also included a memorial tribute to Henry Alsop Riley (1887–1966) and concluded with sections on book reviews and news. This volume reflected the journal’s growing attention to the biochemical and pharmacological dimensions of mental health, marking a key moment in the consolidation of biological psychiatry as a scientific field.
