Dr. Müller is Professor of Addiction Medicine at the Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany. He obtained his PhD in Psychology from the University of Düsseldorf. He did PostDocs at the University of Syracuse (USA), University of Düsseldorf, and University of Brasilia (Brazil) before becoming a Senior Lecturer at the Institute of Psychiatry, King’s College London, UK. In 2010 he joined the Friedrich-Alexander-University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany. He serves on several journal editorial boards and guest edited special issues of Behavioral Brain Research and Brain Research Bulletin. Dr. Müller has published more than 120 scientific papers and book chapters.
"This book was overdue for a long time and I think that it has the chance to be a bestseller in this area."--Boris Quednow, Psychiatric Hospital, University Zurich, Switzerland
