Artificial Intelligence

First published in 1987, this book provides a stimulating introduction to AI - the science of thinking machines. After an introduction, including its history, tools, research methods, and its relation to psychology, it gives an account of research in five major areas: knowledge representation, vision, thinking and reasoning, language, and learning.
