"Packed with useful information and includes a listing of commercially available expert system shells and programming languages. Overall, this is a useful and well-written text that will provide expert system developers with practical methods and techniques. It will also serve as enlightening reading for those who have a basic knowledge of artificial intelligence and wish to gain insight into the process of knowledge acquisition." --Social Science Computer Review
