Here's a list of the books and articles I've written or co-wrote over the years. Those books still in print are available from amazon.com and you can purchase them at a discount right from this web site. As you can see most are related to computers, but there's still hope for me yet - I intend to put my liberal arts education to work and write some stuff people can do dissertations on in the future!

Special Edition Using Linux, 3rd Edition. This Edition targets the
Red Hat distribution, one of the easiest to install Linux distributions
available. The book comes with not one, not two, but three CDs containing
Red Hat, Slackware
96, and Caldera Lite. Anyone interested
in learning what Linux is and how to use Linux and Unix will find this
a delightful book. Linux kernel hackers need not apply since this book
would be too simplistic for you. The book is aimed at beginners and those
who want a low cost solution to internet access than those pushed upon
the masses by large corporations. Read what PC Magazine
has to say about our book!
