If you find the topic interesting, you might want to read the paper Imitation, mirror neurons and autism. It's been quite a while since I've read it, but it gave me a lot of good grounds for my own inquiry. Obviously, I don't agree with everything they say, but I did enjoy their rather dismissive attitude toward "theory of mind" and other misconceptions. Worth a look.

The formatting on the PDF stinks. If it annoys too much, I'd be happy to send a plain text copy.
