Balance: A Dizzying Journey Through the Science of Our Most Delicate Sense
by Carol Svec Author
Listen, there's one sense we neglect the variety of scope and possibility. You need to stay balanced, obviously. Low-frequency sounds such as thunder or distant engines can cause dizziness and nausea. A light touch can keep you from losing your balance. People get falling down drunk because of a small structure in the inner ear that floats when doused in alcohol. These facts and many more are found in this account of balance and the pop science studies and experiments that support this account.
