A recommended book for those who have previous assembly
language experience and wish to get to know details relating to the
8051 microcontroller. While the internal architecture of the chip is
covered in detail, external hardware and peripheral interfacing is
not. Only the basic 8051/31 is covered, with little mention of the
other variants available. There are extensive listings in the text,
covering routines for handling keyboards and displays, as well as
timing loops and communications. A large, clear typeface ensures
that all of the listings are completely legible. The layout and
presentation of the book is excellent, with a consistent,
unambiguous style used throughout.

This is the best book I have read on the 8051. I read it years ago and still refer back to it.

If you want to program in assembly language this is the book.
