AI has been advancing so rapidly that when looking at AI books the first thing to take a note of is the date of publication. In this case 2007. Not too bad. Good systematic coverage of the basics. Good outline of the field. Just when it was starting explode.
The Best book I have ever read about any subject, it is simply number one with a star, there is no way you will not understand A.I inside and out by the time you have finished reading this book.
It is a very well written book on everything related to artificial intelligence. It has a clear language and code samples in C. Anyone interested in Artificial Intelligence should read it
