First port of call for everything AI,
By A Customer
This review is from: Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach (Prentice Hall Series in Artificial Intelligence) (Hardcover)
An essential core text for anyone interested in artificial intelligence with a particular emphasis on the practical use and implementation of intelligent agents. Thorough and comprehensive, yet highly suitable as an entry-level text and written with a light touch that actually had me chuckling out loud at a couple of points (believe it or not)!

Excellent, but not light reading,
By
This review is from: Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach (International Edition) (Paperback)
This is my favourite AI textbook, which I strongly recommend. But be warned: it's long and detailed and thorough, so don't expect a lightweight overview - it's where to go when you really want to understand the stuff. It's heavily biased towards First Order Logic as the way to do knowledge representation, and is especially good on Bayesian networks.
If you're interested in the philosophical issues involved in "real artificial intelligence" rather than (or as well as) the technical stuff, chapter 26 is a superb introduction.

A must read for all who are interested in this subject,
By A Customer
This review is from: Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach (Prentice Hall Series in Artificial Intelligence) (Hardcover)
With a light-heartened style, these authors take the reader from the basics to a very good level of knowledge. The reader chooses what level to get to, by means of solving the suggested exercises. Covers the main themes. Obviously aimed to inexperienced readers.
