I really like Kevin Murphy's books. I learned a lot from them when I was getting started on this stuff. He's just released a two part follow up to his 2012 book. Both parts are available online.
I also really like David Mackay's book (also free online). It's...idiosyncratic. But fantastic!
Best of luck with your learning! Start simple, go slow. Write code every step of the way!! ^_^
