Vertigo and Dizziness

First published in 1994, Vertigo and Dizziness provides a unique and accessible multidimensional account of the common but underrated problem of dizziness, vividly illustrated by sufferers’ accounts of their experiences. This book incorporates analysis of physical causes of vertigo and disequilibrium, neurophysiological links between dizziness and anxiety, and the personal and social significance of disorientation and instability.

Vertigo and Dizziness will be invaluable to sufferers (including many people with panic and agoraphobia) and healthcare professionals who care for them such as neurologists, otolaryngologists, audiologists, physiotherapist, hearing therapist, and clinical psychologists.
