IMAGE CREDITS

Because several of the old and rare illustrations shown in this book were difficult to acquire in a clean and legible form, I have sometimes taken the liberty to apply image-processing techniques to remove dirt and scratches, enhance faded portions, and occasionally add a slight coloration to a black-and-white figure in order to highlight details or to make an image more compelling. I hope historical purists will forgive these slight artistic touches and understand that my goal was to create an attractive book that is aesthetically interesting for a wide audience. My fascination for the incredible depth and diversity of topics revolving around AI should be evident through the photographs and drawings.
