Review

"The ideas represented in Parallel Distributed Processing fundamentally challenge the main concepts and assumptions of modern cognitive science." - James G. Greeno, The New York Times Book Review "Rumelhart and McClelland propose that what is stored in memory is not specific facts or events, but rather the relationships between the various aspects of those facts or events as they are encoded in groupings of neuronal cells or patterns of cell activity." - Daniel Coleman, The New York Times "[This is] a comprehensive compilation of neural network research and development. There are algorithms you can use to explore various methods in the field. If you want information on neural network technology in book form, this is the set to own." - Artificial Intelligence Special Interest Group Newsletter "The most intense, most effective and most mind-stretching view of neurocomputing origins, theories and concerns to yet reach print." - Intelligence
