	I just finished a book by K. Eric Drexler called
	_Engines of Creation_.  In the book, Eric mentions
	a program developed by Douglas Lenat at Stanford University
	called EURISKO.  The descriptions of EURISKO sounded
	fascinating.

	I was wondering if anyone out there in netland could 
	tell me more about EURISKO and where I could get some
	information about the program.  Is there a book!!??

	ANY information would be greatly appreciated.

	Thanks....	Jon

[Most popular books on AI will have an account of it.  Johnson's
 "Machinery of the Mind" for example has a chapter on AM and Eurisko.
 (NY Times Books, 1986).
