The Internet of Things (IoT) is the latest evolution of the internet, evolving from connecting computers to connecting people to now connecting everything to everything. This transformative trend began with a burst of fanfare, excitement, and enthusiasm, and has entered a phase of practical implementation.

The IoT will manifest in diverse ways and involve a wide range of fields. It will encompass technology, design, security, legal policy, business, artificial intelligence, design, Big Data, and forensics, touching upon virtually every existing field. This is the rationale behind this book. While there are numerous books dedicated to individual fields within the IoT, they often provide a narrow focus, lacking a comprehensive perspective. There is a need for a book that introduces the IoT to non-engineers, enabling them to dream of its possibilities and explore career opportunities in this rapidly growing field.

To achieve this, the editors assembled a team of experts from various domains, inviting them to collaborate on an introductory IoT book. The objective was to create a resource that offers a comprehensive view of the current fundamentals and anticipated future trends in the IoT, presented from a practitioner's perspective. The book aims to bridge the knowledge gap between technical experts and non-technical stakeholders, providing leaders, students, and laypersons with a fresh worldview of the IoT and the background necessary to make informed technology decisions.

To enhance the reader's experience, the book reviews real-world applications of IoT endpoints and devices, showcasing how they are being used to solve business and civic problems. Additionally, it includes notes on lessons learned, offering valuable insights and practical tips for those embarking on their IoT journey.

In conclusion, Fundamentals of Internet of Things for Non-Engineers is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the world of IoT and its potential for shaping the future. By bringing together a diverse range of voices and expertise, the book provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the field, equipping readers with the knowledge and tools they need to thrive in this rapidly evolving landscape.
