This review of the aim of machine intelligence (to make machines which think and act) traces and illuminates the latest progress towards the goal of the intelligent machine. It is an integrated sequence of research undertaken by Professor Michie and his colleagues, providing a good introduction to the subject. This second edition, which has been completely revised and expanded, incorporates much stimulating new material, resulting in a new book rather than a new edition. Half of the original text has been re-written, and fresh introductory notes supplied for each of the book's four main sections. Every chapter is individual and self-sufficient, offering the reader the freedom to select topics to suit his own needs; and helping to establish a theoretical, mathematical and linguistic understanding of cognitive process.
