The book is for undergraduate or first year graduate, and it is not required a full background in calculs or algebra. All chapters require a pratice works on lisp example, in order to be most effective. Tanimoto written lisp examples prior to the language standardization, so source codes could be a little re-worked. Although all text example are based on lisp, it would...

I learned to programming Common Lisp using Tanimoto's book (in conjunction with Winston Horn's "Lisp"). The book's writing is superb, and the examples are very well thought out and implemented.One word of caution: the book was written before the complete standardization of Common Lisp. So some of the functions, such as those specific to I/O and FEXPR will not work on current Common Lisp implementations (such as GCL). But all...

Tanimoto provides a very broad treatment of AI techniques. As such dicussions are often brief. There is an outstanding section on Computer vision. Knowledge representation is also well covered. The author presents highly idiomatic examples of Lisp code. This book would be ideal for anyone not familiar with AI techniques who wants to do AI research and/or development.
