Abstract
Summary form only given. The exceedingly regular and intricate neuroanatomy of the vertebrate cerebellar cortex has prompted many speculations about its function. The author reviews and assesses models for the functioning of cerebellar cortex, including those suggesting that it is: a timing device, a device enabling spatial navigation, or an associative memory store which is used in motor control
