I'm still working on my AI book and part of that process is reading every other non-fiction, non-technical AI book (both to see what they say and see what else is out there).
Do you have any additions to the list below? Preferably from the past 5 years and I'm generally not seeking textbooks or books that have academics as the main audience.
I have short reviews of most of the first 40 but they are scattered so perhaps I'll include them in a future post.

There's also Olle Häggström's Tänkande maskiner. It's in Swedish but IMO it's superior as an introduction to both Human Compatible and Superintelligence (the only other book-length treatments I've read).
