books

On this page you can find out about the computer books I've written and access the companion web pages. I have been writing books for both computer programmers and users since 1986. The programming books cover a wide range of topics, including operating systems, computer languages, graphics, animation, games, and XML. The user-level books focus on Microsoft Office applications.

papers & articles

Here I've presented a collection of papers and articles that I've written. The papers cover various topics in computer science. The article collection consists of my blog Fascinating Computer Science—articles on interesting new developments in computing, as well as an older series of articles I wrote for various programmer's magazines.
