Hello, 

I have currently no read access to the USENET comp.ai.neural-nets conference,
so I don't know what is happening about the "books for novice Topic"

However, I have directly received some answers to my question;

It seems that there is a 'bible' is this domain, it is :

		Parallel Distributed Processing (PDP)
		By James L. McCLEALAND,
		   David E. RUMELHART and
		   The PDP Research Group

		At the MIT Press 

There are three Volumes :

	1) Foundations
	2) Psychological And Biological Models
	3) A Handbook of Models, Programs And Exercises (+ Disks for PC )

Another book was also proposed :

		Neurocomputing
		By Anderson And Rosenfeld 
		(I don't know if it is at The MIT Press)


If I receive any other answer I will let you know.

Best Regards,

Marco


P.S. Can someone send me a message as an aknowlegment of my sending.
