Out of context like this, "she has published" is better, because it focuses on the result (two books)
However, "she published" would be better if...
(A) you're talking about a specific time (eg. the year 2011), or
(B) "she" is dead. (eg. a famous author from the past)

Has published is more formal and sounds the most correct.
