Title: too much chaff
Review: I have been researching fuzzy logic for a few years now and someone handed me this book. I was looking for a book like this to integrate more philosophy and examples, rather than straight forward hard-core math equations and theory. Be careful what you wish for, it might come true! This book was a rambling diatribe with a lot of subjective views on many disjointed topics. I really had to wade through a lot of painful reading to get to some useful information, which was very few and far between. His analogies and comparisons between fuzzy logic and Aristotle vs. Buddha detract rather than add to the argument. The chapters get away from the chapter titles with haughty generalizations and distracting writing. A good editor and a more focused, less "fuzzy" style would have made this more appealing. Don't buy this if you are looking for a book on fuzzy logic.
