  1. Insect Cognitive Architecture for Robotics
    Insect Cognitive Architecture for Robotics
    Modeling Neural Circuits for Intelligent Machines
    gareth thomas

    What if the smartest blueprint for building intelligent robots wasn’t found in supercomputers or massive AI labs—but inside the tiny brain of an insect?Insects conquer the world with less than a million neurons. They navigate cities of pheromone trails, execute precision flight maneuvers, solve complex foraging problems, and coordinate in vast colonies—all with brains smaller than a pinhead. Their survival proves a radical truth: intelligence doesn’t require size. It requires efficiency.

  2. Computational Neuroscience
    Computational Neuroscience
    The Science of Thought From Synapses to Supercomputers
    gareth thomas

    A Comprehensive Textbook on the Mathematical and Computational Foundations of Brain FunctionThe brain is not just an organ—it is a computational system, processing vast amounts of information through dynamic neural networks. How does the brain encode, store, and retrieve information? How do electrical and chemical signals translate into thought, perception, and decision-making?

  3. Bare Metal Computing X64 Edition
    Bare Metal Computing X64 Edition
    Low Level Coding of Native Instructions
    gareth thomas

    Most programmers never touch the machine.They live inside frameworks. They trust kernels. They inherit latency, abstraction, and hidden behavior they do not control.And they call that “systems programming.”Bare Metal Computing With X64 — Low Level Coding of Native Instructions is for the engineer who wants authority, not convenience

  4. Rapid Iterative Development
    Rapid Iterative Development
    Applying Agile Principles to Hardware Engineering
    gareth thomas

    Rapid Iterative Development offers a clear, practical framework for bringing the speed and adaptability of agile software methods into the world of hardware. Whether you're designing electronics, robotics, or complex mechanical systems, this book shows how to reduce cycle times, respond faster to test results, and move from concept to production without losing quality.

  5. Mastering PTX and SASS
    Mastering PTX and SASS
    Volume I — The PTX Language and Architecture Foundations
    gareth thomas

    If you’ve ever wondered why your GPU code hits a wall long before the hardware’s limits, this book tells you why—and how to break through it.Most programmers stop where the compiler starts. They trust nvcc to make the right decisions, to manage registers, to schedule instructions, and to use memory efficiently. But the compiler doesn’t know your problem. It guesses. And in GPU computing, guessing costs performance.

  6. Fundamentals of Modern Satellite Design
    Fundamentals of Modern Satellite Design
    Principles Systems and Applications
    gareth thomas

    The Ultimate Guide to Satellite DesignSatellites are not gadgets. They are not toys. They are the most complex machines humans have ever launched into the void.Every time one lifts off, billions of dollars, decades of research, and entire industries are riding on whether it works.This book pulls back the curtain and shows you exactly how satellites are conceived, designed, and made to function in the harshest environment known: space.

  7. Python Code Collection for Practical Satellite Engineering
    Python Code Collection for Practical Satellite Engineering
    Code, Systems, and Simulation
    gareth thomas

    Python Code Collection for Practical Satellite Engineering: Code, Systems, and SimulationWhat if you could sit down with a stack of ready-to-run code and instantly simulate the same problems that keep satellite engineers awake at night?

  8. Python Code Collection for Advanced Satellite Engineering
    Python Code Collection for Advanced Satellite Engineering
    Scientific, Military, and Constellation Systems
    gareth thomas

    Python Code Collection for Advanced Satellite Engineering: Scientific, Military, and Constellation SystemsSatellites don’t wait for theory. They demand working code — and that’s exactly what this book delivers.

  10. Building AI Applications with PHP
    Building AI Applications with PHP
    A Practical Guide Using PapiAI, Laravel, and Symfony
    Marcello Duarte

    Build real AI agents in PHP — no Python required. Two complete projects, ten LLM providers, and every production concern covered.

  11. LadybugDB for Edge Agent AI memory

    Vector stores don't think — they search. They find fragments that sound like your query, then forget they ever looked. Every session starts from nothing. Every context window is a memory that dissolves at sunset.But the deeper problem isn't amnesia. It's that when agents do remember, they remember in someone else's house — on servers you don't control, in formats you can't inspect, under terms you didn't write.Memory Graph is a book about building something different: persistent, structured, queryable memory that lives inside your application — no external servers, no data leaving your process, no infrastructure you don't own. An embedded graph database that travels with your agent the way a nervous system travels with a body.You'll learn how to model not just facts, but relationships between facts. Causality. Temporal ordering. The layered structure of meaning that makes memory more than a search index. You'll build ontologies that enforce what can be known and how. You'll combine graph traversal with semantic search — so your agents find not just what's similar, but what's connected.The result is an agent that remembers the way you do: structurally, contextually, privately — with memory that belongs to you.

  12. Beyond the Resilience Myth
    Beyond the Resilience Myth
    Why We Struggle to Bounce Back and How to Build True Mental Toughness in a Digital Age.
    Alex R. Insight

    Master Antifragility and Peak Performance to stop just surviving and start thriving. Use Neural Rewiring and a Growth Mindset for burnout prevention and long-term success in high-stress environments.

  13. 存在究原
    存在究原
    Yongxi Zhou

    追溯“存在”这个核心概念的本原意义,并根据此本原意义严格区分存在、非存在和不存在。从存在论进入认识论,认识为什么本身必须是一种存在性活动?语言为什么在本质上就是形而上学的,对“不可说”的界限如何进行界定?
