Excellent resources I am aware of, at the introductory level, are:

[1] Christian Jacob, *Illustrating Evolutionary Computation with
Mathematica*, _The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Artificial Intelligence_,
hardcover 578 pages, Morgan Kaufmann; 1st edition (February 1, 2001)
ISBN-13: 978-1558606371

[2] The companion website for Christian Jacob's book, *Illustrating
Evolutionary Computation with Mathematica*, website that contains
numerous Mathematica notebooks.

[3]  Claudio Mattiussi, *Bio-inspired Adaptive Machines: Genetic
algorithms for function optimization*, Laboratory Material,

"In this laboratory you will experiment with various illustrative and
real-world applications of Genetic Algorithms (GA). The first three
examples are implemented as Mathematica notebooks.You will find a
detailed description of these exercises in the pdf files linked below.
Some basics on the Mathematica interface are given in the pdf file
describing the first exercise." (From Claudio Mattiussi's website.)
