My Books

I'm the author of the "Moving to Linux" series of books, published by Addison Wesley. The most recent is Moving to Free Software. Consider it a first step toward the goal of freeing yourself from the confines of expensive, proprietary software; stop spending hundreds and thousands of dollars on software (why would you?).

My previous and fifth book was "Moving to Ubuntu Linux" is also available now. Visit the book's page to buy a copy or click the cool new cover in the left hand menu. This new book even comes with a bootable live DVD so users can run and work with Ubuntu Linux without having to install Linux or commit right away. When you're ready to proceed, an easy installer is just a click away on the desktop. This is the perfect book for the Linux-cautious or for your Linux-skeptical friends. Make sure you also check out all my books, including the second edition of the bestselling Moving to Linux : Kiss the Blue Screen of Death Goodbye!". For the corporate user, there's Moving to the Linux Business Desktop, a superb guide to deploying Linux in the corporate office. Moving to the Linux Business Desktop is also, in many ways, a second edition to my first book, Linux System Administration; A User's Guide, bringing you up to date on the most important server side packages. My second book was the highly acclaimed Moving to Linux: Kiss the Blue Screen of Death Goodbye! (first edition), a tech bestseller!

From there, you can still order your copy from your favourite e-tailer.
