About this title

Review

Computers and Thought: A Practical Introduction to Artificial Intelligence is one of the few artificial intelligence textbooks that describes cognitive models in detail. However, one of the book's shortcomings is that it uses POP-11, an obscure Lisp-like programming language, to create the example programs. To read the example programs, you will first have to slog through a tutorial on POP-11 and, because you will probably not have a POP-11 compiler, you will not be able to try out the examples. The bulk of the book is dedicated to describing standard artificial intelligence topics, such as search and knowledge representation.
