About the Author :
Doug Lowe has written enough computer books to line all the birdcages in California. His other books include PowerPoint 2007 For Dummies, Java All-in-One Desk Reference For Dummies, and Networking For Dummies, Sixth Edition.
Although Doug has yet to win a Pulitzer Prize, he remains cautiously optimistic. He is hopeful that George Lucas will pick up the film rights to this book and suggests PowerPoint Episode 2,007: The Phantom Presentation as a working title.
