The "International Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurosciences (IPBN) Yearbook" is an Annual publication with the goal of providing the community of psychiatry and behavioral neuroscienes in English speaking counties with a window of important works that were published either in non-English language journals or were published in English in local journals that are not readily available to the World community. The IPBN Year Book helps the English speaking community by making these works available, as well as making sure the non-English speaking publishing scientists have wider exposure to their work. The current issue readily dispels the assertion that if a paper was not published in English it was not worth translating. Much of this work reflects special aspects of the disorder for the local population. It is paramount for the understanding of psychiatry to know what is common to all cultures and what varies between communities.
