Which Generative AI Book Should You Read? A Guide for India, Dubai and Asia (2027)
Quick answer
If you want one generative AI book to start with, pick it by the tool you use at work. Claude users should read The Claude Playbook for Professionals 2026, Microsoft 365 users should read Microsoft 365 Copilot for Corporates, and anyone who just needs working prompts should read Master AI Prompting. All three are PDF books by Parikshit Khanna on Topmate, listed at ₹99 on Wednesday 11 November 2026.
A note on this guide: it covers only books written by Parikshit Khanna, founder of Digital Training Jet. It is a reading guide to his Topmate library, not an independent ranking.
