Geocaching for Dummies
Published in September 2004 - a manual for the then new sport of geocaching. Some things have changed over the years, but the content is still solid. Check out the table of contents and a sample chapter.

GPS for Dummies
Published in June 2004 - everything you always wanted to know about GPS and digital maps but were afraid to ask. Here's the table of contents and some excerpts. My editor says this has been one of the best selling GPS titles on the market, which is a nice compliment. - I'm currently working on a much needed second edition, that will have lots of updates and new content. It should be available from your favorite bookseller late summer/early fall 2008.

Secrets of Computer Espionage: Tactics & Countermeasures
My first book came out in July 2003 and is all about computer spying - here are some reviews, a sample chapter and links that go with it also see "The Mystery of Damien Casablanca" The book was subsequently translated into Polish and Russian, which is kind of cool in a Cold War espionage kind of way. It even was a bestseller for a bit. (I'm not doing much computer security work these days, but the Complete Unofficial TEMPEST Information Page is archived here.)
