AI Reading List: Recent Books

Below is a portion of my informal list of readings related to Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Please let me know if you have any corrections, additions, suggestions, etc. It is very idiosyncratic and not meant to be comprehensive. Please feel free to share with others.
