Notes:	"Updated extended version of Neuroanatomy of the oculomotor system, Reviews of oculomotor research, volume 2 (1988)." "This book is dedicated to Bernard Cohen who discovered that the paramedian pontine reticular formation (PPRF) was essential for the generation of saccadic eye movements 40 years ago"--Preface. Includes bibliographical references and index. English. Print version record.
Summary:	This volume in the Progress in Brain Research series features reviews on the functional neuroanatomy and connectivity of the brain areas involved in controlling eye movements. Oculomotor control of the eyes is now the subject of many research projects and advances in this field are relevant to understanding motor control in general.
