Summary: Hands on fuzzy logic book
Comment: This book compliments The Fuzzy Systems Handbook very well. (BTW, The Fuzzy Systems Handbook, also by Earl Cox, is one of the most usable Fuzzy Logic books that I have on my bookshelf) The practical examples in Fuzzy Logic for Business and Industry, provide users with tools to implement Fuzzy Logic in real world applications. If you want a book explaining Fuzzy Logic principles, this is not the book for you. If you want to get insight into the application of Fuzzy Logic in business scenarios, this is a very worthwhile starting point.

Summary: Not as good as the Fuzzy Logic Handbook
Comment: In this book the concepts of Fuzzy Logic are outlined reasonably well, but emphasis is put on the so called 'applicability' of fuzzy reasoning in business applications. By working through several business examples in depth, a fair coverage of the topic is provided. The step by step description of the fuzzy process is a bonus towards understanding how the model arrives at it's end results.

However, compared with the Fuzzy Logic Handbook, this book relies too heavily on the examples. It lacks the clear description of some of the underlying mathematics and their relevance provided in the Handbook aswell as a solid foundation of the principles of fuzzy logic.

On the other hand, this book provides long and detailed examples that can be usefull in combination with the sometimes short descriptions provided in the Handbook.

If you are looking for a good introduction into Fuzzy Logic, this is not the right book, if however you are somewhat familiar with the principles and want to see for yourself how fuzzy logic works, this book provides some nicely worked out examples.
