Knowledge Acquisition in Practice Reviews

From the reviews:

Building on Nigel Shadbolt's pioneering work in the field of knowledge acquisition, Milton, prominent artificial intelligence researcher, here provides a clear guide for knowledge acquisition projects. ... Overall, this comprehensive work approaches knowledge bases holistically, by exploring both the process of creating knowledge bases and the strengths and weaknesses of competing knowledge base structures. Glossary, index, appendixes, bibliography. A highly technical work appropriate for academic libraries. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals. (K. J. Whitehair, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (5), January, 2008)
