Review
& quot; A glimpse into the frontiers of research going on in AI labs all over the world. And the editors have performed a commendable task in throwing open the doors of MIT's AI labs and letting the public in to have a look around.... One does not have to be clairvoyant to predict that what goes on now in the large computers will someday emerge on the screens of PETs, Apples, TRS-80s and a host of other microcomputers.& quot; - Personal Computing
