This was an excellent book to learn from back in the day. I had to read through it maybe 20 times. I would just read a chapter or two over a cup of coffee on weekend mornings; and when I got to the end of the book I would start all over. Eventually it started sinking in. I then typed in and worked through several of the programs/sections. I just never had a decent, or specific problem to solve using the code. And of course, the training data sets would have to be massive to be functional--and where was I going to find the data back then (late '90s and early 2000s)? It was a good book for learning the concepts. I remember at some point reading reviews where people had a problem with the code being on a floppy disk. I transferred it to CD/DvD without a problem. That would be difficult to do today. But the code is probably online somewhere. Or, you can type it in by hand. LOL.

When I first read this, in 1996, it promised to a useful introduction to a lot of terms and ideas that weren't readily available to a 19yo at the public library in a very rural area. The first few chapters delivered on that promise, but the rest of the book was a waste of time. I recently found this book hiding in an old storage container and attempted to read it again. This time...I have trouble believing that I actually read something so poorly written.

1995! Hmmm. Still not too bad. Detailed elementary expositions down to and including sample C++ code. But in all honesty I found it all a bit tedious and drawn out.
