[net.ai] AI Reference Books

kiessig@idi.UUCP (Rick Kiessig) (07/07/84)

	I received the following suggestions for reference/text books
on AI in response to my article posted a while ago:

	AI Handbook by Feigenbaum et al.

	AI Journal (pretty technical)

	AI Magazine

	Artificial Intelligence by Elaine Rich (a textbook)
		(several people thought this was a good intro book)

	Artificial Intelligence by Patrick Winston (2nd ed.)

	Artificial Intelligence and Natural Man by Margaret Boden
		(less technical, more historical & quite thick)

	Expert Systems by Hayes-Roth, Waterman, et al.

	Fifth Generation by Feigenbaum et al.

	Problem Solving Methods in Artificial Intelligence by
		Nils J. Nilsson (1971)

	If you know of any others, I'd like to hear about them,
or if you've read any of these any have comments (good or bad),
that would be useful, too.

I have been reading "Artificial Intelligence Programming" by Charniak et al,
and have found it to be a very good intro to Lisp.  The second half of the
book goes into some detail on useful AI techniques, such as discrimination
nets, rule-based inference engines, etc.
