Working-with-Claude-Vol1
Most people use Claude as a better search box and stop there.
This book takes you the whole way: from typing your first useful prompt, to building projects and skills that remember your context, to designing workflows that do real work while you review the results.
It is written for the complete newcomer and stays useful long after you stop being one. No coding background is assumed. Every chapter ends with a TRY THIS NOW exercise you do in a live Claude window, so you finish with a working setup rather than notes about one.
