- Summary:
- John McCarthy's influence on computer science ranges from the invention of LISP and time-sharing to the coining of the term "artificial intelligence" and the founding of the AI laboratory at Stanford University. In this collection of reviews, McCarthy staunchly defends the importance of artificial intelligence research against its attackers. McCarthy also explores the larger questions associated with AI, such as the nature of intelligence, the application and acquisition of knowledge, and the politics of AI research. This volume will appeal to all interested in artificial intelligence research.
