Zusammenfassung
Combining an introduction to relevant concepts related to automatic storytelling with accessible descriptions of well-known computer programs that illustrate how such concepts are employed, the book is aimed at an interdisciplinary audience and assumes little or no background in computer science.
Zusatztext
The book is well structured and progresses from describing relatively simple and accessible models using templates much like online forms that are such a familiar part of everyday online life.
