The Quest for Artificial Intelligence a History of Ideas and Achievements
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a field within computer science that is attempting to build enhanced intelligence into computer systems. This book traces the history of the subject, from the early dreams of eighteenth-century (and earlier) pioneers to the more successful work of today’s AI engineers. AI is becoming more and more a part of everyone’s life. The technology is already embedded in face-recognizing cameras, speech-recognition software, Internet search engines, and health-care robots, among other applications. The book’s many diagrams and easy to understand descriptions of AI programs will help the casual reader gain an understanding of how these and other AI systems actually work. Its thorough (but unobtrusive) end of chapter notes containing citations to important source materials will be of great use to AI scholars and researchers. This book promises to be the definitive history of a field that has captivated the imaginations of scientists, philosophers, and writers for centuries.

Programming and problem solving with Java
This book has been developed from the ground up to be a Java text. It is not a “Java translation” of our previous texts. We have, however, retained our familiar easy-to-read style and clear approach to introducing new topics. Each chapter has the same overall organization as in our previous books, with a full problem-solving case study, testing and debugging hints, summary, and five types of exercises. Also, some topics, such as problem solving, are independent of the programming language and thus contain familiar discussions. In every regard, this new book is object-oriented in its presentation of the fundamental concepts of computing. From the very first chapter we use object-oriented terminology to describe the software development process. Classes are covered extensively in Chapter 2, where we first encounter Java syntax. Over the course of the next several chapters, students learn to build separately compiled classes representing realistic objects and to add to their sophistication gradually.
