- The following is a list of PROLOG-RELATED books that I have run accross
- which may be of interest:
-
- Clocksin & Mellish, Programming in Prolog, Springer-Verlag
- This book is to Prolog what Wirth's User Manual and Report is to Pascal.
- It is a bit difficult and more concerned with describing the language
- than applications.
-
- Burnham & Hall, Prolog Programming and Applications, Halstead Press
- A better introduction to the language than C&M. Lots of examples.
- I recommend it if you still need help after working through Borland's
- tutorial.
-
- Conlon, Learning Micro-Prolog, Addison-Wesley
- Good examples but the difference between Micro-Prolog and "standard"
- get in the way. There are several other Micro-Prolog books but stay
- away from them; the differences in notation will do nothing but
- confuse you.
-
- Li, A PROLOG Database System, Research Studies Press
- Li's dissertation on building a DBMS. Heavy but worth it if you
- do want to build a big relational DBMS in Prolog.
-
- Wos, et.al., Automated Reasoning, Prentice Hall
- This is not a Prolog book; Wos has his own language but it works a lot like
- prolog and relys as heavily on Horn clauses. Good introduction with plenty of
- excellent examples to the whole field of predicate calculus.
-
- Please feel free to add to this list or offer any comments on the above
- books.
