An enthralling story that vividly resurrects the web of everyday Germans who resisted Nazi rule "Stirring."--USA Today - "Fascinating."--New York Post - "Important."--Newsday - "Gripping."--Pittsburgh Post-Gazette - "Engrossing."--Publishers Weekly - "Terrifying and timely."--Alex KershawNazi Germany is remembered as a nation of willing fanatics. But beneath the surface, countless ordinary, everyday Germans actively resisted Hitler. Some passed industrial secrets to Allied spies. Some forged passports to help Jews escape the Reich. For others, resistance was as simple as writing a letter denouncing the rigidity of Nazi law. No matter how small the act, the danger was the same--any display of defiance was met with arrest, interrogation, torture, and even death. Defying Hitler follows the underground network of Germans who believed standing against the Fuhrer to be more important than their own survival. Their bravery is astonishing--a schoolgirl beheaded by the Gestapo for distributing anti-Nazi fliers; a German American teacher who smuggled military intel to Soviet agents, becoming the only American woman executed by the Nazis; a pacifist philosopher murdered for his role in a plot against Hitler; a young idealist who joined the SS to document their crimes, only to end up, to his horror, an accomplice to the Holocaust. This remarkable account illuminates their struggles, yielding an accessible narrative history with the pace and excitement of a thriller.

Unlocking Practical AI: A Developer’s Guide to Building with LLMs and LangChain
Format: Paperback
If you're a developer eager to move beyond LLM experimentation and build robust, context-aware AI applications, this book offers both inspiration and practical guidance. The authors open with a clear passion for the transformative potential of large language models (LLMs) and LangChain, framing these technologies as not just enhancements to the developer’s toolkit, but as gateways to new kinds of “thing-building” superpowers. This sense of possibility is grounded in step-by-step instruction, making the book approachable for those with Python or JavaScript backgrounds who may be new to the world of production-grade AI agents.
What stands out is the book’s careful scaffolding: starting with foundational concepts like prompt-based programming and progressing to advanced capabilities such as retrieval-augmented generation, agent planning, and tool integration. Each stage is contextualized with real-world use cases, like customizing chatbots to interact with your own documents, personalizing user experiences through memory, and deploying to production with reliability and security in mind. The focus on chain-of-thought reasoning and LangGraph’s agent architecture demonstrates the authors’ awareness of the current state of AI, where context and planning are just as important as raw language ability.

Excellent Handbook
Format: Paperback
What got my interest in this book is the author. He's well-known as a leader in the LangChain world. And his book did not disappoint. It goes through the whole life cycle of development and there is a lot useful insights. If you are looking to build real-world genAI/agentic apps, then this book is certainly a great choice.
