You may be familiar with our range of books. Our trademark is "Programmer to Programmer", because Wrox books are written by professional programmers for professional programmers and are subsequently reviewed by professional programmers. We are currently in the process of producing a publication dedicated to professional Perl programming and are seeking authors who have the expertise to write chapters on one or more of the following subjects:- 1) Perl and Relational Databases (access to MS SQL servers via the Sybase drivers, Oracle, and probably a bit of MySQL too. Modules that should be covered include DBI::W32ODBC, Win32::ODBC, Win32::DBIODBC, DBFramework, and Tangram) 2) Mathematical and Computational Applications (Perl Math Modules, Mathematical Algorithms with Perl, Matrices, Cryptography) 3) Distributed Perl Programming (IPC, RPC, CORBA) In addition to these chapters, we need authors to write the following sections: * A section on "Perl IDEs and Editors" * Integrating Perl with IIS * Integrating Perl with Netscape We have unfortunately been let down by a couple of authors and so would need your first draft of the chapter(s)/section(s) within 2 weeks, so please let me know ASAP if you are interested in writing for us.
