	producing the same action, has promoted a renaissance for the Motor
	Theory (MT) of speech perception. This is because mirror neurons
	seem to accomplish the same kind of one to one mapping between perception
	and action that MT theorizes to be the basis of human speech communication.
	However, this seeming correspondence is superficial, and there are
	theoretical and empirical reasons to temper enthusiasm about the
	explanatory role mirror neurons might have for speech perception.
	In fact, rather than providing support for MT, mirror neurons are
	actually inconsistent with the central tenets of MT.},
