Adoption was the easy part. McKinsey’s 2025 State of AI survey records artificial intelligence in use at 88% of organisations, with generative AI climbing from 33% to 79% in two years — one of the fastest enterprise-technology curves on record. Yet only about 6% report material impact at the bottom line. The constraint is no longer access to the tool. It is the quality of the instruction given to it.
AI Tools, Techniques & Tricks is the method that closes that gap. At its centre sits the 6-Protocol Format, a six-stage structure developed from the author’s IA-SEA research programme and applied consistently across all fifteen chapters:
(i)Role — who the model is to be.
(ii)Context — what it must know before it answers.
(iii)Commands and Tasks — precisely what it must do.
(iv)Pitfalls — the errors it must not make.
(v)Examples and Format — the shape the output must take.
(vi)Clarifying Question — the step nearly everyone omits, and the one that most improves the result.
INSIDE THE BOOK
(i)Part I — Foundations: artificial intelligence, prompts and prompt engineering in plain language, without mathematics or jargon.
(ii)Part II — The Toolkit: how to select among current platforms for business, organisational and research work, and what each is genuinely good at.
(iii)Part III — Techniques: the craft itself, including the full 6-Protocol Format, iteration and the evaluation of output quality.
(iv)Part IV — Tricks: advanced moves, among them Prompt Stacking and Reverse Prompt Engineering.
(v)Part V — From Skill to System: building prompt libraries, establishing governance and ethics, and measuring return on investment.
(vi)Four appendices: more than one hundred ready-to-use prompts for business, organisations and research, plus a one-page cheat sheet.
(vii)A twenty-four-entry glossary defining every technical term used.
WHY PROMPT QUALITY PAYS
The evidence is measurable, not anecdotal. In a controlled study of professional writing tasks published in Science, Noy and Zhang found that structured AI assistance cut completion time by approximately 40% and raised assessed quality by roughly 18%, with the largest gains accruing to weaker performers. McKinsey values the long-run annual potential of generative AI at US$2.6–4.4 trillion across sixty-three use cases. Demand has followed: prompt-engineering job postings rose by an estimated 250% between 2024 and 2026.
WHO IT IS FOR
Founders, managers, analysts, consultants, administrators, lecturers and graduate researchers who must produce work with AI and have had no formal training in it. No coding is required. Nothing here assumes a technical background.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Etemi Joshua Garba, PhD, is a Full Professor of Computer Science and pioneer Dean of the Faculty of Computing at Modibbo Adama University, Yola. He writes from two decades of research and supervision in intelligent systems, and from the practical position of teaching working professionals to use these tools well.
Every technique in this book is shown failing before it is shown succeeding, so that the difference is seen rather than asserted. The prompts are written to be copied, adapted and deployed the same day.
The tool is already on your desk. This book teaches the method.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
