About the Author

Bruce Smith is a former Technical Editor of Acorn User magazine and founder of Bruce Smith Books. Around half of his 150 books have covered the topic of computers and computer programming. He was one of the first to write about the ARM chip when it was originally released. He is well known for his easy, lucid style of writing and his books have been translated into five languages. Here are some snippets from user reviews written about his books: ‘This is the first computer book I’ve read in bed for pleasure rather than to cure insomnia.’ ‘Much more to offer, practical and down-to-earth...for those that want a complete, thorough and readable guide, Bruce Smith is your man. ‘No other author has investigated with the thoroughness of Smith...every page provides useful information. Put off getting that new game, and buy this book instead. You won’t regret it.’ ‘This book has been written with the absolute novice in mind. It doesn’t patronise, yet neither does it baffle with jargon and slang.’
