Books by Eric Giguere
To date, I have authored or co-authored three
trade books on computer programming, all published
by John Wiley & Sons, and one consumer-oriented
computing title, published by Peachpit Press.
The programming books have
focused on handheld computing topics: Java programming
of mobile and wireless devices using Java 2 Micro
Edition (J2ME) and Palm OS programming using C/C++.
The consumer-oriented book is about making money
with Google's AdSense program.
Each book has garnered decent reviews, be sure
to check the pages at Amazon.com for specific
opinions. (To see what books I like, see my
list
of recommended books.)
In reverse order of
publication, the books are:

Make Easy Money with Google
A consumer-oriented book (in other words, a book for non-technical computer
users) that shows how to build money-making websites using Google's
AdSense program. The book is written partly in a narrative style,
kind of like The Wealthy Barber, and will appeal to anyone
young or old who's interested in learning about the Web,
advertising, and Google.

Mobile Information Device Profile for Java 2 Micro Edition
Co-authored with C. Enrique Ortiz,
this is the first book that specifically focuses on the
Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP), the first
profile to be defined under the Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) umbrella.
Extensively covers MIDP 1.0 and provides a good introduction
to J2ME in general.
