Fuzzy logic was pioneered by Dr. Lotfi Zadeh, whom I met when he gave a lecture at the University of Toronto.

I don’t have a very strong impression of McNeill and Freiberger’s book. I had read it a long time ago, and it’s just what you would expect. Nothing from it in particular stuck to my memory, except that while fuzzy logic caught on in Japan, it had completely failed to capture the public’s imagination in North America.

Kosko’s book was more memorable. I found it charming, but elementary, repetitive, and overly mystical. A reader is not likely to learn very much from it on the technical aspects of fuzzy logic, but will get a glimpse into the mind and personality of one of its proponents and practitioners.
