[comp.lang.lisp] AI Programming texts?

apl_aimh@jhunix.UUCP (Marty Hall) (11/06/87)

I am teaching an AI Programming course at Johns Hopkins this coming
semester, and was wondering if there were any suggestions for texts
from people that have taught/taken a similar course.  The course
will be using Common LISP applied to AI Programming problems.  The
students have an Intro AI course as a prereq, and have only mild
exposure to LISP (Franz) at the end of that course.  Both the
AI Programming course and the Intro are supposed to be graduate
level, but would probably be undergrad level in the day school.

My thoughts so far were to use the second edition of Charniak,
Riesbeck, etc's "Artificial Intelligence Programming", along with
"Common LISPCraft" (Wilensky).  Steele (CLtL) will be included
as an optional reference.

Any alternate suggestions?  Send E-mail, and if there is a consensus,
I would be glad to post it to the net.

Thanks!
