Some interesting material but rather dated at this point. Mostly a snapshot of AI before the tidal wave of Statistical and Machine Learning.

I'm looking to do a lot of learning on state-of-the-art Artificial Intelligence, and this book was listed as one of those "others purchased this + this" type deals with another book I was looking at, and it was so cheap, I thought, "Sure, why not?"
