On reaching.

I deal in this review with behavioral and developmental aspects of arm movements aimed at targets in immediate extrapersonal space. In addition, neural mechanisms that may subserve this function are discussed on the basis of neuronal recording and brain lesion studies. However, this is not a comprehensive r view of each subject; thus, no exhaustive references are given, nor is a detailed tracing of the history of ideas underlying modern ~
