As an aside, I'm surprised by the lack of covering of this stuff in medical school. For what it's worth, I did a psychology degree very VERY long time ago, in a galaxy (ok, country/political system) far far away, and while the medical modules we had (psychiatry and neurology), taught by medical doctors, were indeed pretty disorder centred, we had a big module on "biological basis for behaviour" (taught by people who kept pigs in the basement of their department and made us stun frogs before cutting their top skull halves) which covered the more basic basics (but slightly beyond "walking upright") as well as "emotions and motivations" one that presented a mixture of old fashioned psychological wooo with what was then state of the art knowledge of adaptive/normal operation of emotions -- all of that conpulsory for all students, whether they intended to work in clinical psychology or not.
Brilliant summary.
