Christopher Negus has been one of the world’s leading writers of Linux books for nearly a decade. His Red Hat Linux Bible series has sold more than a quarter-million copies worldwide. Chris also authored or coauthored the books Linux Bible (2005 and 2006 editions), Linux Toys, Linux Toys II, and Linux Troubleshooting Bible for Wiley Publishing.

Before becoming a full-time author, Chris Negus worked on UNIX operating system development teams at AT&T Bell Labs, UNIX System Labs, and Novell in the 1980s and 1990s. In particular, Chris worked in the areas of UNIX system administration and networking.

Live Linux CDs is Chris’s first book in the Negus Live Linux Series with Prentice Hall. This book reflects Chris’s dedication to getting powerful, free software up and running quickly and securely. Chris is helping Prentice Hall develop other books in the series, which you can expect to follow in the near future.

When not working on computer books, Chris likes to spend time with his family: Sheree, Seth, and Caleb. Chris also enjoys playing soccer, singing opera (when nobody can hear him), and making things out of old computers.
