Agentic web: A developer's reference to MCP, A2A and beyond

By Kevin Lowe

What if the next evolution of software isn't just smarter but autonomous, collaborative, and context-aware by design?
The future of intelligent systems isn't just about prompting large language models-it's about architecting agents that reason, act, and cooperate seamlessly across ecosystems. This book shows you how.
MCP and A2A: A Developer's Guide to Agentic Protocols is a practical and comprehensive guide for developers, architects, and researchers ready to build next-generation AI systems using Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication. Whether you're integrating LLMs with real-world tools or designing scalable, secure, and interoperable agentic architectures, this book is your definitive roadmap.
You'll gain hands-on insights into:
Implementing MCP for structured, tool-augmented AI behavior
Enabling secure, modular A2A messaging using JSON-RPC and Agent Cards
Building interoperable agents that can discover, delegate, and collaborate
Designing resilient, ethical, and future-proof autonomous systems
What sets this book apart? It goes far beyond theory. Each chapter combines deep technical insight with real, working code and clear, step-by-step examples-so you're not just reading about the agentic web, you're building it.
Whether you're a solo developer, part of an enterprise AI team, or exploring research frontiers, this book will elevate your understanding of how intelligent software communicates, scales, and adapts.
Now is the time to stop building static applications-and start building intelligent systems that think, talk, and act.
Grab your copy and start your journey into the agentic future.
