Wrox hit the rocks as Glasshaus cracks
By John Leyden

IT publisher Wrox Press is set to close following the collapse into liquidation of US owners Peer Information last Friday.
Peer Information owns Friends of Ed and Wrox Press, which trades as Glasshaus, Curlingstone, and runs a number of community sites.
Glasshaus and Friends of Ed have announced that their respective sites are to close. There's nothing on the Wrox site just yet, but links on the site suggest the business failure of Peer Information spells the demise of a whole community, which includes sites such as ASPToday.com and CSharpToday.com (both up and running but neither is taking new subscriptions or adding fresh content). .....
Wrox作為計(jì)算機(jī)編程類(lèi)圖書(shū)的專(zhuān)業(yè)出版商，在讀者心目中一向是高質(zhì)量的代表，其開(kāi)發(fā)者社區(qū)也聚集著全世界范圍的大量的開(kāi)發(fā)人員�？梢哉f(shuō)這個(gè)消息在寒冷的互聯(lián)網(wǎng)冬天給人們?cè)僭鲆唤z寒意。所幸的是這個(gè)困境似乎正在消彌中。
登陸 www.wrox.com 你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)熟悉的暗紅色和wrox的logo以及下列字句：

Wrox作為一家極具特色的計(jì)算機(jī)圖書(shū)出版商，有了一個(gè)歸宿，而且還能保持原來(lái)的特色，實(shí)是讀者的大幸。Wiley是美國(guó)出版界的百年老字號(hào)，創(chuàng)始于1807年，專(zhuān)長(zhǎng)于科學(xué)，技術(shù)，醫(yī)學(xué)，以及高等教育書(shū)籍的出版發(fā)行。
