More recently, this type of reasoning has been shown to play a key role in a surprising number of contexts, from understanding conversations to the analysis of distributed computer algorithms. \u003ci\u003eReasoning About Knowledge\u003c\/i\u003e is the first book to provide a general discussion of approaches to reasoning about knowledge and its applications to distributed systems, artificial intelligence, and game theory. It brings eight years of work by the authors into a cohesive framework for understanding and analyzing reasoning about knowledge that is intuitive, mathematically well founded, useful in practice, and widely applicable. The book is almost completely self-contained and should be accessible to readers in a variety of disciplines, including computer science, artificial intelligence, linguistics, philosophy, cognitive science, and game theory. Each chapter includes exercises and bibliographic notes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bradford Book","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47588980031639,"sku":"9780262562003","price":7977.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780262562003.webp?v=1774968627","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/reasoning-about-knowledge-9780262562003","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
