Hi Sione, > I just had a quick look at the link, for your book from the link provided. > > Question? > Is the book, about doing Machine Intelligence in Java (sample codes + > theory). It > looks like an excellent book in the subject if it is. I will be ordering > one. Thanks for your interest. The book does include a chapter entitled "Current State of the Art in Machine Intelligence" that surveys current research, but it does not include sample code and I think does not mention Java. It analyzes intelligent machines based to two ideas: 1. That intelligence cannot be programmed, but must be learned and will be acheived by machines that mimic the learning structures of human brains. 2. That intelligent machines will evolve in Internet servers and that they will develop close relations with large numbers of people via ubiquitous computing. It includes discussions of the role of intelligent machines in human society, and the public policy questions around their development. The book is quite a departure from my usual interests, but I don't have the energy to write another new system like Vis5D or VisAD and intelligent machines have interested me for a long time. Their development will be the biggest change since the first appearence of humans, and may occur during the lifetime of young children alive today. Cheers, Bill
