โœฆ Synopsis

First ofall, the overall sequencing of chapters could have been better thought out. The sequencing of chapters does not follow the T/worJ', .4rchitw-(~lrc~, [~nd lpp/i[u/i~vl,\ theme set up by the book's subtitle.

There does not appear to be any logical ordering of the chapters. The three separate aspects ofconnectionist modeling suggested in the subtitle should have been highlighted in distinct sections of the book. The bibliographies at the end of each chapter make it quite easy to follow the references within the chapters: however, future reference uses of the volume would have been greatly facilitated by including a combined bibliogmphy.

Bu("k/)ro/)(lg [lli otl." 'l"/l<'orI', .4rdIitc'ci urc.s, (lnd .tppliculi[m.v will likely not be of interest to some J.4.W.$ readers. but will certainly be valuable to others. C'onnectionist techniques ( particular! backpropagation ) have proven extremely flexible in many areas and arc becoming more widely used in information Science. especially in Information Retrieval ( for instance. see Scbutze. Pedersen. & Hull, 1995 ). The general approach and many of the techniques discussed in this volume could find application in many aspects of Information Science, including the focuson predictive ( as opposed to explanatory ) models and the tractability of adaptive solutions to non-linear problems.
