I've found out about Norvig few days ago by reading Coders at Work, and was quit surprised to find such news. Thanks!

If you ever take an AI class the textbook will probably be his other book. This one's more fun, focused on implementation, and a little dated because it's all GOFAI. It'd be a terrible first Lisp book though; read Practical Common Lisp first if you're new to/rusty with Lisp.

I had a chance to slightly touch some AI technologies like perceptrons and neural networks during days at the university, but have never heard about GOFAI. As I understand it's human-friendly approaches like decision tree?

Also thank you for pointing to Practical Common Lisp! :)
