Hey folks,

While googling, I just found that book freely available for online reading on Scribd.
This is Artificial Intelligence For Games (2nd Ed), by Ian Millington and John Funge.

Quite interesting :P

Fuck that shit. The Scribd page suggests that it's CC-BY-NC, which would mean that it would be perfectly fine to attach it here. But the text itself says "Copyright © 2009 by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved." with no reference to any creative commons license. Maybe they mean the print version is under standard copyright law, while the digital distribution is CC-BY-NC?

Well, the book has a website and everything. It sells for ~50USD in physical form and ~40 in kindle format (which is too expensive IMHO). I doubt it is CC.

I'd venture that the guy who uploaded it to scribd did it without permission from the author or the editorial. But this is a guess.

Sent an email to Ian Millington, the author of the book. Figured that would be the easiest way to get a definitive answer.

Posting the PDF is illegal per the author's e-mail (I already asked). Out of respect for the author's work can the OP please remove the link as well?
