<p>I check again with the subchapters of Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach, 4th Global ed / US ed from <a href="http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/" rel="noreferrer">this website</a> the pdf subchapters reference of <a href="http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/global-Contents.pdf" rel="noreferrer">Global Edition</a> and <a href="http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/" rel="noreferrer">US Edition</a>. I can confirm you the difference between Global US edition is this subchapter:</p>
<pre><code>20 Knowledge in Learning 739
    20.1 A Logical Formulation of Learning 739
    20.2 Knowledge in Learning 747
    20.3 Explanation-Based Learning 750
    20.4 Learning Using Relevance Information 754
    20.5 Inductive Logic Programming 758
Summary 767
Bibliographical and Historical Notes 768
</code></pre>
<p>So Global Edition has more content than US Edition.</p>

<p>The book <em>Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach</em> by Russell and Norvig has two editions: global and the US. It looks like these two are generally the same, but have some differences in the order of the chapters and in the context, is this correct?</p>

they only add one chapter in the [Global Edition](http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/global-index.html) adding the chapter 20 Knowledge in Learning, in the V Machine Learning Section and start change the orders of the chapters in the Section IV Uncertain knowledge and reasoning. I don't have those editions yet to confirm if there are any differences between the sub-chapters, if anyone have it please answer about the difference. for the moment  [Global Edition](http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/global-index.html) has an extra chapter than [US edition](http://aima.cs.berkeley.edu/).
