The Fuzzy Systems Handbook: A Practitioner's Guide to Building, Using, and Maintaining Fuzzy Systems/Book and Disk

Rating:
Summary: Fuzzy logic good; C++ poor
Review: After Bart Kosko's "Fuzzy Thinking," this was the first fuzzy logic book that I bought. The writer's prose is readable and understandable and the explanations of fuzzy logic, especially as applied to modelling, are quite good. My criticism is that the source code provided is not truly in C++; very few (and no important) C++ features are utilized. With very little change, the examples could be compiled with a C compiler. This is most unfortunate, since fuzzy logic in general, and the modelling system described are excellent for object-oriented software. I hope that the 1998 edition of the book does better.

Summary: Excellent hands-on guide
Review: The C++ source code that ships with this book, makes it already worth the buy. Combined with this, the book has some good practical examples of real world fuzzy systems
