Computational Models of Argument
The subject of argumentation has been studied since ancient times, but it has seen major innovations since the advent of the computer age. Software already exists which can create and evaluate arguments in high-stake situations, such as medical diagnosis and criminal investigation; formal systems can help us appreciate the role of the value judgments which underlie opposing positions; and it is even possible to enter into argumentative dialogues as if playing a computer game. This book presents the 28 full papers, 17 short papers and a number of system demonstrations, described in an extended abstract, from the 2012 biennial Computational Models of Argument (COMMA) conference, held in Vienna...

Rings of Fire
“An epic story, filled with an unfolding array of evocatively described landscapes and sharply drawn, unforgettable people.” —Dayton Duncan, writer and producer for Ken Burns documentary films and author of fourteen books on American history and national parks Edwin Land had barely settled into his seat on the plane when the flash went off.
