In addition to the Huge amount of info in the recent issues of most
computer magazines (Dr. Dobbs, etc) try a book called Neural Computing
written by Philip D. Wasserman and published by Van Norstrand Reinhold
c1989.  The book covers a lot of the basics.  P. 38 of the April
issue of Dr. Dobbs has a nice introductory article.
