"Jag Vet Inte Ännu, Men Jag Dansar Ändå" är en fängslande blandning av memoar och manifest som utforskar kroppens dolda intelligens, rörelsens läkande kraft och konsten att våga skapa i det okända. Genom att kombinera vetenskap, personliga anekdoter och röster från fem extraordinära kvinnor bjuder boken in till att släppa kontrollen och omfamna det kreativa kaoset. Det är en inbjudan att lita på kroppens intuition och sätta scenen i brand.

Fifty RF‑101 Voodoos arrived in Vietnam. Forty‑seven were shot down in a year. The pilots who survived didn't fly faster aircraft — they cycled through the OODA loop faster than the missiles chasing them. Jeff Sutherland was one of them. He went on to co‑create Scrum. Now, six decades later, he is running AI agents through daily sprints at machine speed — and this book is the playbook for how to do it without getting shot down.

Pain-Free MBSE is a practical guide to applying SysML without the unnecessary pain. Too often, MBSE gets a bad reputation for being slow, rigid, or overly complex. This book changes that. Using the Lunar Lander as a running example, it exposes high-pain modeling practices and introduces simpler, more effective alternatives. You'll learn how to apply the Value-to-Pain Ratio (VPR) to streamline your process, improve collaboration, and build models that work in the real world. Whether you’re a systems engineer, software developer, or decision-maker, Pain-Free MBSE helps you model with confidence — and without the headaches.

Doing Cloud is easy. Doing it right is hard. The difficulty appears to be a problem of choice, but behind every Cloud success or failure story, there's always just one reason - cost. This book offers a framework, rooted in understanding Cloud's nature, for applying that understanding to the many shapes cost takes.

Developer platforms promise to rewrite the laws of IT physics: they boost innovation through standards; they speed up development while assuring compliance; and they reduce cognitive load without restricting choice. Building such an in-house platform, or even deploying one, is far from easy, though. This book condenses a decade of building and rolling out platforms into practical advice for platform teams and users.5300+ happy readers! Also as Paperback edition
