The book also includes detailed descriptions of the anatomy and physiology of the vestibular system, as well as the clinical implications of vestibular disorders. Overall, A Historical Survey of Vestibular Equilibration is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of neuroscience and the study of balance and orientation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
