Any good book for practical recipes for Azure Entra ID

[gkarwchan]

I tried two books on Azure Active Directory and Microsoft Identity platform to try to build applications.

But I will be honest, the books are very dry when explaining the concepts (Application Object, Service Principal, Registered App, Enterprise App...), and I try to understand it but find it difficult.
