'Mirrors in the Brain' by Giacomo Rizzolatti & Corrado Sinigaglia in Nature. Last paragraph:
"There has been a lot of media hype surrounding mirror neurons. The real danger is that too much is explained, not too little. This is inevitable with any new discovery but does not, in itself, vitiate the discovery's intrinsic importance. Nearly a decade ago, I wrote that "mirror neurons will do for psychology what DNA did for biology". It remains to be seen whether they will turn out to be anything as important as that, but as Sherlock Holmes said to Watson: "The game is afoot.""
P.S. Ignore the last sentence that appears pn the page; it is the full review.
