Review

" my money, Machines Who Think continues to be the most reliable source on the first couple of decades."" -Herbert A. Simon, March 2004
""If you are interested in how the pioneers of AI approached the problem of getting a machine to think like a human--a story told here with verve, wit, intelligence and perception--there is no better place to go than this book."" -John Casti, NATURE, April 2004
""The enormous, if stealthy, influence of AI bears out many of the wonders foretold 25 years ago in Machines Who Think, Pamela McCorduck's groundbreaking survey of the history and prospects of the field.... [T]aken together, the original and the afterword form a rich and fascinating history."" -Scientific American, May 2004"
