Wrox press (established in 1992) is a computer book publisher, originally based in the UK. Wrox pioneered the philosophy of "Programmer to Programmer™" books for technology professionals. All books published by Wrox are written by software developers.[1][2] The books are distinguished by their red covers and black and white pictures of the authors.
The holding company of the original Wrox Press, Peer Information, liquidated its assets in an insolvency process executed during 2003. [3]. The name and some of the more successful titles (but not the company itself) were acquired by John Wiley & Sons, Inc., a Hoboken, New Jersey based publisher founded in 1807, which continues to publish under the Wrox imprint.[4]
Some of Wrox's key authors include Michael Kay, Scott Hanselman, Bill Evjen, Christian Nagel, Thomas Rizzo, Ivor Horton, Imar Spaanjaars, Reto Meier, Brian Knight, Brian D. Patterson, Tom Termini, Matthew Baxter-Reynolds and Scott Guthrie.
