Douglas Hofstadter is a leading researcher in the field of artificial intelligence and the fluid, parallel approaches to AI that are increasingly in vogue, inferred by chaos, complexity and cognitive psychology. This book, written with leading researchers from his Fluid Analogies Research Group, is a wonderfully stimulating tour of new approaches to modelling intelligence. An important book.

Synopsis:
Hosftadter and his colleagues at The Fluid Analogies Research Group have developed computer models that help describe and explain human discovery, creation and analogical thought. The key issue of perception is investigated through the exploration of playful anagrams, number puzzles, word play and fanciful alphabetical styles, and the result is a survey of cognitive processes. This text presents the results.
About the Author:
Douglas Hofstadter is Professor of Cognitive Science and Computer Science at the Centre for Research on Concepts and Cognition at Indiana University and the University of Michigan.
