Answer 2

Here's one book you may find useful: Prolog Programming for Artificial Intelligence by Ivan Bratko.

The first part is about Prolog, the second about AI algorithms and how to implement them in Prolog.

Answer 3

If you want a very accessible and solid introduction to Prolog (this is more into 'learning the language'), go for "Programming in Prolog: Using the ISO Standard" by Clocksin and Mellish, now in it's 5th edition.
