It seems you are confusing the broader field of artificial intelligence with the subfield of machine learning. One good book in on this subject is Machine Learning by Tom M. Mitchell. AIMA by Russel and Norvig discussed in other replies is a good overview book but contains a lot about searching and planning which is good to know but not rely necessary if you want to build a âoebrainâ.
If you plan on designing neural networks that simulate biologically plausible processes I would recommend reading about Spiking Neural Networks. A good tool for this is the NEural Simulation Tool (NEST) available free of charge from http://www.nest-initiative.org/
