  1. Product Engineering with AI
    A practical guide to product engineering in an AI native era
    Addy Osmani and Hassan Djirdeh

    A practical guide to product engineering in an AI native era, where building shifts from manual construction to steering tools, editors, and agents. Product Engineering with AI covers platforms, agentic workflows, prompting, code quality, UX, and responsible practices for getting from prototype to production. 

  2. The practical guide to AI-first teamwork. Includes access to the 'CollabAI AI companion' that helps you run your first session immediately. Most teams have fast individuals—but a slow system. AI can change that. CollabAI is the manual for teams who want to stop waiting and start flowing. It moves beyond "chatting with a bot" to a new collaborative rhythm where humans and AI build, test, and decide together in real time. Inside, you’ll discover:The Framework: How to run CollabAI sessions that compress weeks of work into hours.The Science: Why "System 2 Rituals" and psychological safety are the hard requirements for speed.The Scale: How to apply Joe Justice’s principles (Justice Boards & DSM) to run entire organizations without managers.The Future: How to transition safely to Agentic AI workflows using the Agion Pattern.Start optimizing the flow.

  3. A clear, illustrated guide to large language models, covering key concepts and practical applications. Ideal for projects, interviews, or personal learning.

  4. How to Build and Fine-Tune a Small Language Model
    A Step-by-Step Guide for Beginners, Researchers, and Non-Programmers
    J. Paul Liu

    You don’t need massive compute or big-tech resources to build real AI. This hands-on guide shows you how to build and fine-tune your own small language model—from scratch—using accessible tools like Google Colab. Learn transformers step-by-step, train and align models on your own data, and deploy practical AI systems that run on consumer GPUs. If you’ve ever wondered “Can I build my own model?”—this book proves the answer is yes.

  13. AI Assisted MBSE with SysML
    An Integrated Systems/Software Approach
    Tim Weilkiens, Doug Rosenberg, and Brian Moberley

    The book highlights the significance of software in systems engineering and uses AI as a subject matter expert. It presents a comprehensive example that covers SysML modeling, including requirements, use cases, logical/ physical architecture, and parametric simulation. It then continues into software, leveraging AI's code generation capabilities to produce software including microcontroller, UI, and DMBS code. It introduces a variety of personas and agents that can help engineers communicate with AI about systems and software engineering. The book also introduces SysML v2, focusing on the new language model and exploring AI's ability to generate models via code generation. Perhaps most importantly, it provides a straightforward roadmap for hardware/software co-design, accelerated at every step by AI. Whether you're a systems or software engineer, or just interested in how to use AI for engineering, AI Assisted MBSE with SysML will prove to be a valuable guide.

  15. Stop Facilitating, Start Leading
    The Scrum Master's Path to Value Flow Management
    Tristan Libersat

    You’ve facilitated your 50th retrospective. The same issues surface. The same action items are created. Nothing changes. Features marked "done" sit in queues for months. You’re doing your job perfectly—and it’s making no difference.What if the problem isn’t your facilitation skills? What if the Scrum Master role itself is trapped in an outdated model?
