This review is from: Vertigo: Its Multisensory Syndromes (Clinical Medicine and the Nervous System) (Hardcover)

A reference book for all doctors or scientists interested in vertigo. Many clinical and functional aspects are treated. This book may constitute a good reference of the state of the Art, as well as a source for an extended bibliography.

4.0 out of 5 stars One of the better books on vertigo, June 17, 2011

This review is from: Vertigo: Its Multisensory Syndromes (Hardcover)

This is one of the best books specifically on vertigo, written by one of the most knowledgeable authors on the subject. It is best for clinicians and researchers rather than lay persons. Nevertheless, it is well-written and useful to anyone with sufficient interest in this debilitating malady.
