In reply to my question about a good introduction to fuzzy logic, I received 
the following messages. Thank you to those who replied.

Personally I like

W. Pedryz 'Fuzzy control and fuzzy systems',2nd edn, Research studies press
Taunton, uk, 1993

Its good on the control engineering side. Secondly its not full of
bullshit, unlike those from most americans (ie Kosko).

     Usefull answer I have received from Dr. Kudra (Germany):

"Unfortunaltely, I have nou had an overview about modern books and
articles about fuzzy theory. I will suggest you to the so-called
"bible" of fuzzy theory, the book of Dubois and Prade "Fuzzy Sets-
Theory and Applications ", published 1980 by Wiley I think. I think
in this book you find the main principles, the foundations of fuzzy
set theory. Furthermore, a comprehensible but a controversial one is
the book of Bart Kosko "Fuzzy Thinking", published 1990 I think."

The best introduction is "The Fuzzy Systems Handbook" by Earl Cox.  
Academic Press, ISBN 0-12-194270-8.
