Who This Author Is

Dori Smith has enough depth here to be more than a raw catalog rollup. This page pulls together 6 catalog-linked books across 1998 to 2008, which makes it easier to separate the strongest starting points from the noisier editions. The clearest lane here leans toward Backlist browsing.

Best for readers who want a dependable place to start before opening the full catalog list. If you want the easiest first click, start with Java 2 for the World Wide Web (Visual QuickStart Guide) and branch outward from there. UPB note: the strongest documented run here lands between 1998 to 2008; the most common copies on this page tend to come from Addison-Wesley and Peachpit Pr.
