For a serious treatment of Neural Networks I go for Jaceck Zurada' book 
published by West's. There is also the IEEE Press book by Symon Haykin, it 
is a good book. For down to earth treatment take a look at Fausetts' book 
published by Prentice-Hall.

Now for fuzzy logic my favorite is still Zimmerman published by Kluwer.
