Gareth Thomas is the publisher-author behind BurstBooks, creating rigorous, code-rich STEM textbooks for engineers and advanced learners. Based in Auckland, New Zealand, he builds practical, reference-grade titles that blend clear exposition with working math, diagrams, and real-world examples. His catalog focuses on high-impact domains—including humanoid robotics, GPU architecture and programming, electronic warfare systems, satellite and space systems, EEG/neuro-engineering, and applied AI/ML—designed for hands-on use in labs, teams, and self-study.

Gareth’s workflow is unapologetically modern: LaTeX for precision, reproducible figures and listings, and AI-assisted drafting to accelerate iteration while maintaining strict technical accuracy. Each BurstBooks edition aims to minimize fluff and maximize utility—clean structure, consistent notation, and actionable takeaways. When possible, he complements books with supporting Github repositories, infographics, and exercises to help readers move from theory to implementation quickly.

Note: Many BurstBooks titles are AI-assisted technical editions—structured for information density and correctness over prose style.
