About the Author

Michael E. Cohen has lived on the southwest corner of the intersection of technology and the liberal arts for his entire working life. He’s taught writing and literature courses, programmed for the Deep Space Network, designed and implemented instructional word processors, and advised dozens of humanities professors on all matters digital.

He’s also created ebooks; edited ebooks; and even written ebooks, including Take Control of TextExpander, Take Control of PDFpen 6, and Take Control of iBooks Author, all of which you should consider buying. As a young man, Michael set out to be a professional dilettante and, after years of struggle, succeeded beyond his wildest dreams.

Acknowledgments

Who else? Tonya, Kelly, Adam, and all the Control Freaks who make producing these books much more fun than any paying job has a right to be. And to my brother Norman for shooting the parrot (with his camera—no psittacines were harmed in the making of this book).
