St Mary's Books is proud to present this 1875 edition of "Grundlinien der Lehre von Den Bewegungsempfindungen", or Fundamentals of the Theory of Movement Perception by Dr Ernst Mach. Dr Mach was a pioneering physicist and philosopher whose work contributed to the understanding of the physics of shockwaves, for which the ratio of the speed of a flow or object to that of sound is named the Mach number in his honor. This paperback book contains 126 pages of text in German, and is complete with diagrams and equations. Within the pages of this book, the reader is treated to a foundational text in experimental psychology which establishes the physiological and mechanical basis of the vestibular system, explaining how humans percieve motion, balance, and spatial orientation. This copy is in fair condition - the binding is held together with tape, the covers have suffered significant losses and some minor foxing and the pages have yellowed. "Grundlinien der Lehre von Den Bewegungsempfindungen" is looking for a new home and would make for the perfect gift for any aviation, psychology, or physics enthusiast.
