I agree with his criticism that the book is "old", mine stems from the 
year 1992.

I bought and studied the Russell-Norvig books on "Artificial 
Intelligence: A Modern Approach", ie. the 1th, 2nd (and in the future 
the 3rd edition), in order to learn modern AI theory.  They have 
discontinued the 3rd edition but I succeeded in ordering a copy anyway. 
  I have read the 1st and the 2nd editions, but I have not yet received 
by mail the 3rd edition.

But I only got the PAIP book to learn Common LISP, not in order to study 
modern AI.  This  is why I'm discussing this in the new:comp.lang.LISP 
newsgroup.

Any good modern LISP textbooks out there?

Can anyone point to me any other good modern textbooks on AI than the 
3rd edition of the Russell-Norvig book?  (Which is reputable.)
