Abstract

The field of artificial neural networks has grown substantially in recent years accompanied by an increased number of neural networks textbooks. These books attempt to give a broad introduction to both the theory and use of neural networks, such as (Hertz, 1991), (Kung, 1993), (Haykin, 1994), and (Rojas, 1996). Hassoun's book, like these, is a very good textbook for first year undergraduate students who are learning the computational abilities of neural networks. In addition it has some value to researchers because recent advances are covered.
