Opis
In The Vestibular System:: A Sixth Sense, leading experts present an integrative, comprehensive and innovative look at the sense that Aristotle missed. The vestibular system plays a vital role in everyday life, contributing to a surprising range of functions from reflexes to the highest levels of perception and consciousness. This text not only offers a thorough and fresh review of the basicssensory transduction, the neurophysiology of peripheral and central pathwaysand howvestibular signals are processed in the control of gaze and posture; it significantly moves the discussion forward with its attention to the current research and the fields revolutionary advances, such as the understanding of neural correlates of self-motion and the basis of clinical disorders. In addition,the objective presentation of existing controversies is exciting reading and an extremely important contribution to the texts completeness. Dynamic, intellectually challenging, and unique in its level of integration of the material, this book is essential for anyone interested in understanding the vestibular system.
