“The main focus of the book is on the ideas behind basic principles of learning theory and I can strongly recommend the book to anyone who wants to comprehend these ideas”  (Mathematical Reviews, 1 January  2013)

“It also serves as an introductory reference for researchers and practitioners in the fields of engineering, computer science, philosophy, and cognitive science that would like to further their knowledge of the topic.”  (Zentralblatt MATH, 2012)
