The book of wisdom by Mencius, a philosopher and sage of Ancient China is presented here in hardcover with an authoritative English translation.

Written during and shortly after the Warring States period of Chinese antiquity, the book of Mencius is a selection of conversational dialogues between the philosopher and his various disciples. Together they discuss all manner of topics, from living a happy and virtuous life to the principles of raising a family and educating the young.

Breaking with Confucius himself, who venerated rulers and strong governance, Mencius argues for the right of common people to overthrow a repressive or brutal regime. The book is rich with analogy, examining the actions of the ancient kings and dukes of China in order to draw comparisons and enhance the lessons offered.

In life, Mencius was a prominent figure who traveled and lectured widely, serving variously as an educator, official and scholar in the realms of ancient China.

Before GPT can chat, it has to learn.
Format: Paperback
One of the most comprehensive guides to AI and deep learning available. All concepts covered clearly and concisely with illustrations. Complex concepts are broken down into understandable terms. Even though ML and AI require some complex math, you won’t need it to get idea of what’s going on inside the computer’s “brain”. I use this as a reference when teaching AI concepts and preparing presentations. I highly recommend it

Great for intuitive understanding
Format: Paperback
Amazing book. Great examples and diagrams. If you're looking to get an intuitive grasp of deep learning, look no further. If you're an engineer looking to apply it, I would recommend pairing this with one of the more technical canonical texts and a programming focused book.

Taught me backpropagation
Format: Paperback
I'm finding this book a great reference to supplement Syracuse IST 691 Deep Learning in Practice. In particular, its explanation of backpropagation is the clearest I have found yet, and that even includes 3 Blue 1 Brown, which always does excellent explanations.

An Easy Read
Format: Paperback
A good narrative description of how the various systems work. Good for getting a conceptual understanding. No math to speak of, and if you want it, you can refer to the references cited, or your other favorite machine learning book.
