Summary:
This book provides the latest and more relevant information about mirror neuron cells (MNC). The initial chapter provides an overview of mirror neuron cells including discovery and historical perspectives. The subsequent chapter cover important points relating to mirror neuron cells such as their activities, and anatomical location. The book also discusses the role of mirror neuron cells in mimicking and cognition. Further, the book defines the role of the mirror neuron system in the neurological disorders and implicates the involvement of mirror neuron regions in the perception of motor actions, human speech discrimination, and imitative responses. This book is an important source for neuroscientists, neurologists, and neurosurgeons.
