In response to several messages I've received at late asking questions about a forthcoming book, here's some info: The book, Expert systems: the user interface, will be published by Ablex and is not due out until this summer (we hope to hit the conferences but cannot guarantee it). Queries can be addressed to me or, preferably, to Ablex publishers. Below is the table of contents. If you are desperate for a copy of some chapter, please send your requests directly to the first author. There are no pre-release copies of the entire book available. -Jim Hendler (hendler@brillig.umd.edu) Expert Systems: The User Interface J. Hendler (Editor) Ablex Publishing Corp.
