Most people think of spirituality as something you believe. The Ojibwe understand it as something you live—every day, in relationship with the land, the community, and the unseen forces that shape the world. Exploring Ojibwe Spirituality: Traditions, Teachings, and the Sacred Way of Life opens the door to that living tradition with clarity, depth, and respect. This is not a romanticized overview or a collection of vague ideas. It is a carefully written guide that explains how Ojibwe spirituality actually works—how stories teach ethics, how ceremonies restore balance, and how ...

Your dashboards show you the number. Who explains the why? Every BI system built in the last twenty years was designed to answer "what happened." The AI era demands more: systems that investigate causes on their own, explain their answers, and act — without losing the discipline that made classical BI trustworthy. This book builds that bridge, end to end. AI-Native Business Intelligence, Volume 1 is a complete, practice-first course in three parts: PART I — Classical BI, rebuilt properly. Inmon vs. Kimball, dimensional modeling, slowly changing dimensions, ETL/ELT, data quality, MDM, ...

For over 100 years, thousands of Aboriginal children passed through the Canadian residential school system. Begun in the 1870s, it was intended, in the words of government officials, to bring these children into the “circle of civilization,” the results, however, were far different. More often, the schools provided an inferior education in an atmosphere of neglect, disease, and often abuse. Using previously unreleased government documents, historian John S. Milloy provides a full picture of the history and reality of the residential school system.

Your LLM is brilliant — until you ask it about YOUR data. It hallucinates. Its knowledge is frozen in the past. It has never seen your company's documents. Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is the architecture that fixes all three — and this book is the map that takes you from your first chunk to a fully agentic system. Architecting Knowledge is not another collection of scattered tutorials. It is a complete engineering curriculum: 34 concise chapters, 7 parts, one natural progression — why RAG exists, how a pipeline is anatomised, which building blocks to master, how to compose ...

Your system runs on the same model as theirs. So why is theirs better? It is not the model. Give two teams the identical foundation model and one ships something dependable while the other ships a demo that dies on contact with production. The gap is architecture — and most teams cannot see it, because they have no map. This is the map. What you will be able to do Name what you are building. The fourteen layers of an AI-Native system, and the seven domains they group into — instead of calling the whole thing "the AI". Tell a chatbot from an agent from an AI-Native system, decisively, ...

Software development is shifting fundamentally from explicit, line-by-line coding to goal-oriented, AI-driven programming. Are you ready for the new era of software architecture? AI-NATIVE: The Six Rungs of Evolution is your comprehensive map and hands-on guide to mastering this transition. Instead of getting lost in a sea of disconnected buzzwords like RAG, autonomous agents, and vector databases, this book provides a clear, structured evolutionary ladder. You will climb through six distinct rungs: from traditional rule-based logic and intent-driven chatbots to agentic RAG, configurable ...

Your AI assistant forgets everything. Every conversation, every preference, every decision — gone the instant the call ends. Large language models are stateless by design. Everything an AI system appears to "remember" — the case discussed last week, the user's preferences, the plan agreed an hour ago — is engineered, deliberately, outside the model. That engineering layer decides what enters the context window on every single turn, and it is where AI systems quietly succeed or silently fail. This book teaches you to build that layer properly. While most teams throw bigger models and ...

Indigenous naturopathic doctor Nicole Redvers pairs evidence-based research with traditional healing modalities, addressing modern health problems and medical processes Modern medical science has finally caught up to what traditional healing systems have known for centuries. Many traditional...

Seven design errors, and not one of them is an engineering error A scorecard nobody owns. A limit table that hands the same figure to a firm ten times the size. Security documents that arrive as attachments and never enter a calculation. A repayment test borrowed from consumer lending and pointed at a company. A price whose spread between the best and worst borrower is a fraction of the difference in expected loss. Every one of these is a credit decision that was never taken, surfacing later as a system that cannot answer the only question that matters. A scoring engine is built to answer ...

A single-turn model answers. An agent with a plan finishes the work. Ask a language model to "prepare the Q3 financial report and compare it with the previous quarter" and watch it come apart: data it never fetched, figures it invented, steps in the wrong order. The model is not the problem. The missing layer is. Planning & Orchestration closes the AI-Native quartet with the layer that sits on top of everything else — the brain that turns a vague human goal into finished work. It sharpens the goal into verifiable criteria, decomposes it into a dependency graph, picks a strategy, routes ...

“Why was I sold out at 10:47, at that price?” The firm took four days and five systems to answer — approximately. Then it settled. That letter opens this book, and answering it in under a minute, to the tick, is what the book builds. On the way it names the seven design errors sitting on almost every margin desk — an advance-rate table nobody owns, a call ladder with no liquidity term, concentration measured per client but never per firm, a risk grade that enters no formula, one rate for every collateral book, ratios computed on yesterday’s close, and a close-out order improvised ...

This book, "Design and Modeling Vector Database," provides a comprehensive, hands-on, and academically rigorous introduction to the world of vector databases. It is designed to serve as the primary textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate courses on modern database systems, AI/ML engineering, and data science. Philosophy: My core philosophy is "Learn by Building." I believe that the most profound understanding comes from bridging the gap between theory and practice. This book demystifies the magic behind AI-powered search and retrieval by breaking down complex systems into their ...

In an era defined by the fusion of Artificial Intelligence and Cloud Computing, a new technological paradigm has emerged: Cloud 3.0. This is an ecosystem where the infrastructure is no longer just a passive host for applications but an active, intelligent, and autonomous participant in them. While many resources explain the theory behind these concepts, a critical gap remains: the practical knowledge of how to build real-world AI solutions from the ground up on this modern infrastructure. Cloud 3.0 and AI Infrastructure: Design, Build, and Scale is written to fill that gap. This book moves ...
