Abstract
Recent TICS articles discussed the psychophysical
evidence in favor of Goodale and Milner's action
vs. perception hypothesis. Carey argued that most
of the studies investigating the effects of visual
illusions on grasping can be reconciled with the
notion that the action system resists visual
illusions. Bruno suggested a new interpretation of
the action vs. perception hypothesis in order to
incorporate most of the empirical findings. Here,
I argue that action does not resist visual
illusions. Even more, the effects on the motor
system seem to be comparable to the effects on the
perceptual system. This challenges the action
vs. perception hypothesis in its current form.
