There is a book: OSHERSON D.N., STOB M.and WEINSTEIN S., 1986, Systems that Learn, MIT press. And another one Systems That Learn - 2nd Edition: An Introduction to Learning Theory (Learning, Development, and Conceptual Change) (Hardcover) ~ Sanjay Jain (Author), Daniel N. Osherson (Author), James S. Royer (Author), Arun Sharma (Author) Google on "amazon osherson royer". See some references of my favorite papers, including the Blum and Blum paper, in: http://www.scitopics.com/Godel_Mind_and_Machine.html Happy 2010!
