[Forwarded from the Stanford bboard by Laws@SRI-AI.] If you can read Japanese, I would recommend you the following book: "Object-Oriented Programming" edited by Norihisa Suzuki, Kyoritsu Publishing Co., (Dec. 1985), 2,500 yen (about $14.00). Contents: Introduction to Smalltalk, Actor, TAO, Concurrent Smalltalk, Prolog environments written in Smalltalk, CAI on Physics written in object-oriented system, etc. Why do I recommend you this book? Of course, because I'm one of co-authors. P.S. Sayuri (Nishimura@sumex) and Masafumi (Minami@sumex) have a book. - Gitchang - -------

[Forwarded from the Stanford bboard by Laws@SRI-AI.] And if you can't read Japanese, I recommend reading the article by Mark Stefik and Danny Bobrow in the AI Magazine, Vol. 6, No.4, Winter 1986. However, I'm biased about articles in that rag. rse -------
RICHER@SUMEX-AIM.ARPA (Mark Richer) (05/08/86)
[Forwarded from the Stanford bboard by Laws@SRI-AI.] There's a new introductory book (available now or soon) on SMalltalk by Kaehler, Ted and (I think) Patterson, Dave that is supposed to be a very good and relatively inexpensive book on Smalltalk, the "protypical" object-oriented programming language. Of course, there is also the Addison-Wesley series on Smalltalk, more expensive, detailed, and harder to carry around with a bag of groceries. mark -------
