Index.
Naba Barkakati is an electrical engineer and a successful
computer-book author who has experience in a wide variety of
systems, ranging from MS-DOS and Windows to UNIX and Linux. He
bought his first personal computer — an IBM PC-AT — in 1984 after
graduating with a PhD in electrical engineering from the University
of Maryland at College Park. While pursuing a full-time career in
engineering, Naba dreamed of writing software for the emerging PC
software market. As luck would have it, instead of building a
software empire like Microsoft, he ended up writing successful
computer books. Currently, Naba is a Senior Level Technologist at
the Center for Technology and Engineering in the U.S. General
Accounting Office.
Over the past 15 years, Naba has written over 25 computer books on
a number of topics ranging from Windows programming with C++ to
Linux. He has authored several bestselling titles, such as The
Waite Group’s Turbo C++ Bible, Object-Oriented Programming in C++,
X Window System Programming, Visual C++ Developer’s Guide, Borland
C++ 4 Developer’s Guide, and Linux Secrets. His books have been
translated into many languages, including Spanish, French, Polish,
Greek, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Naba’s most recent
book is Red Hat Linux 9 Professional Secrets, also published by
Wiley.
