Welcome aboard my book Web site

Sailors say, You cannot change the wind, only adjust your sails.

 

The purpose of this Web site is to help you adjust your sails to better utilize my books with today’s rapidly changing technology. As you know, by the time a book is written, tested, and published, certain material often becomes dated, and activities may no longer work the same way they did when we wrote them. The purpose of this Web site is to bring you updated materials, activities, answer sheets, and announcements that can help make my books more valuable to your classes.

 

I have been writing textbooks for Course Technology and Cengage Learning for over 20 years. I was the first author in Course Technology’s newly established networking division back in 1991 when we published my “Hands-on Novell NetWare 3.12” text. At that time Novell was the big player in networking and my books pioneered the concept of using hands-on activities and virtual machines to help students learn and apply new concepts.
