Summary
This book delivers a simple, proven-effective means for building prototype expert systems. The points concerning diverse problems, such as selecting applications, knowledge acquisition, and strategic issues such as controlling questioning are clear and useful. As a basic guide for designing expert systems, the book offers the classification model as a common theme for describing how certain expert programs solve problems. Problem definition, elements of knowledge, and uncertain reasoning are treated concisely. The brief discussion of traditional problem-solving methods, such as decision theory, is valuable. The book concludes with an interesting, down-to-earth essay on the state of the art and consideration of the future.
