Abstract

As someone who has been performing research in case based reasoning for the past five years, I had eagerly awaited the arrival of Janet Kolodner's monumental treatise on case based reasoning. While I found the book invaluable, the depth in which topics are covered, and the number of issues raised in Kolodner's book, make it unsuitable for browsing. Dedicated graduate students and researchers will greatly benefit from studying Kolodner's book; however I would hesitate before recommending it to novices. The latter group would be better served by reading one of the numerous review articles on case based reasoning that have recently appeared (see below), or by reading the shorter introduction in [7].
