I have received a request to summarize to the net the responses I received
on my request for a recommendation on a text for learning the principles
of the theory of AI included is that summary.

Again Thanks to all.

"Artificial Intelligence" by Elaine Rich 

"Principles of Artificial Intelligence" by Nils Nilsson

"The Cyberiad", by Stanislaw Lem (M. Kandel, translator)

Roger Shank's new book is not a general text on AI....
....It is called The Cognitive Computer.

Winston's text (called Artificial Intelligence or something
original like that) 

The first two came in multiple recommendations.
