Saccadic eye movements shift the direction of the eye rapidly from one part of the visual field to another. The system within the brain controlling this eye movement is probably the best understood sensory motor system in the brain of primates. The Neurobiology of Saccadic Eye Movements presents a series of state-of-the-art reviews of this system including the behavior, neuronal mechanisms, and systems engineering characterization. The successful interaction of systems modelling with the neurophysiological approaches described in this book provide a potential blueprint for future study of more complicated systems within the brain.

Prologue. I. Saccadic Eye Movements as a Control System. I. History and Methodology (G. Westheimer). 2. Metrics (W. Becker). 3. Models (J.A.M. van Gisbergen and J. van Opstal). II. The Neural Structures for Saccadic Eye Movements. 4. Brainstem (K. Hepp, V. Henn, T. Vilis and B. Cohen). 5. Deep Layers of the Superior Colliculus (D.L. Sparks and R. Hartwich-Young). 6. Basal Ganglia (O. Hikosaka and R.H. Wurtz). 7. Visual and Frontal Cortices (M.E. Goldberg and M.A. Segraves). 8. Posterior Parietal Cortex (R.A. Andersen and J.W. Gnadt). 9. Visual Superior Colliculus and Pulvinar (D.L. Robinson and J. W. McClurkin). 10. Central Thalamus (M. Schlag-Rey and J. Schlag). 11. Cerebellum (E.L. Keller). Epilogue.
