  1. Claude Code: From Basics to Mastery
    Claude Code: From Basics to Mastery
    The Complete Guide to Agentic Software Development in 2026
    Steve Publications

    Software development is changing fast, and Claude Code is at the center of that shift. Learn how to work effectively with AI agents to write code, automate workflows, and build larger projects with confidence. From setup and prompt design to real-world engineering practices, this book provides a practical guide to modern software development in 2026.

  2. The Agentic AI book
    The Agentic AI book
    From Language Models to Multi-Agent Systems
    Dr. Ryan Rad

    It's never been easier to build an AI agent — and never been harder to make one that actually works. This book takes you from language model foundations to production-ready multi-agent systems with the depth to predict failure before it happens, engineer graceful degradation over catastrophic failure, and take absolute architectural ownership. Get the paperback from amazon.

  3. Inside llama.cpp
    Inside llama.cpp
    The Complete Guide to Building, Running, and Optimizing Local LLM Inference
    Steve Publications

    Learn how to build, run, and optimize llama.cpp from the ground up. This book covers everything from compiling the code and working with GGUF models to deploying fast, production-ready local LLM inference.

  4. Smart AI Agents
    Smart AI Agents
    Don't Let Tokens Eat Up Your Budget
    Juan Cabrera

    Build AI agents that reason when necessary, preserve what they learn, and stop paying the intelligence premium for work they already know how to perform. Smart AI Agents combines architecture, working implementations, public source code, and measured experiments to show how agents can learn once and execute many.

  5. Claude Code for Legacy Modernization
    Claude Code for Legacy Modernization
    Recover Hidden Business Rules, Build a Verification Harness, and Modernize Critical Systems Without Breaking Production
    Thomas De Vos

    Legacy modernization is an evidence problem before it is a code-generation problem. Use Claude Code to recover hidden behavior, build a verification harness, and move critical systems in controlled, reversible slices without handing production decisions to AI. Includes 26 practical chapters, 86 diagrams, and a runnable companion lab.

  6. AI Research on NVIDIA DGX Spark
    AI Research on NVIDIA DGX Spark
    Pushing the Frontier of Local AI on a Petascale Desktop
    Manav Sehgal

    Serious AI research no longer needs a data center. This is the field log of training, fine-tuning, serving, and shipping real models on a single petascale desktop, with the code to reproduce every result. For engineers building AI on NVIDIA hardware who want depth, not hype.

  7. vLLM and the Engineering of Fast LLM Inference
    vLLM and the Engineering of Fast LLM Inference
    A Systems Guide to High-Performance Large Language Model Serving
    Steve Publications

    Building fast LLM inference is about far more than turning the right knobs. This book takes you inside vLLM and the systems behind it, showing how memory, scheduling, GPUs and distributed serving shape real-world performance. Learn how to measure what matters, find bottlenecks and build inference infrastructure that scales without wasting money.

  8. Systems Thinking for Agentic AI
    Systems Thinking for Agentic AI
    A Software Architect’s Guide to Building Reliable LLM and Agent Systems
    Ediz Najim

    An LLM is not an AI system.Systems Thinking for Agentic AI shows software engineers and architects how to design reliable AI applications with prompts, RAG, tools, memory, orchestration, guardrails, evaluation, observability, and runtime control.Move beyond chatbot demos and learn how to build production-ready agentic AI systems you can reason about, measure, debug, operate, and improve

  9. Enterprise AI Platform
    Enterprise AI Platform
    Lab Guide — GPU Infrastructure, Model Serving and Operations
    Thomas Zachmann

    Somewhere there is a server with two GPUs for which no operational process exists. This book turns that into an operable platform — hands-on, in 23 labs: vLLM, KServe, LiteLLM, the NVIDIA GPU Operator, Keycloak, OpenBao, ArgoCD, pgvector. At the end your developers write code with local and external models through a governed gateway.
