xiv, 409; xiii, 428; xviii, 639, [1] pp. Complete as published. A fourth volume (not included here) was published separately in 1989. A distillation of the progress of artificial intelligence technologies up to the point of publication, released during the beginning of the first AI 'boom' of the 1980s.
