From the Back Cover

Build smart electronics projects with the inexpensive, simple-to-use, surprisingly powerful basic stamp. If you want to take advantage of the Popular PIC Microcontroller for your electronics projects, but are intimidated by the programming involved, your worries are over. This guide gives you a comprehensive tutorial on the easy-to-use BASIC Stamp single-board computer which runs a PIC Microcontroller, and doesn't require you to do any assembly language programming. Written by the original author of the widely read "Stamp Applications" column for Nuts & Bolts magazine, Programming and Customizing the BASIC Stamp Computer offers you: a primer on basic electronics--including reading schematics, identifying components, and constructing prototypes; thorough yet accessible coverage of both BASIC Stamp I and II--from reading and understanding BASIC programs, to PBASIC toolboxes, to detailed applications; BASIC Stamp Quick Reference Guide; 12 complete projects that demonstrate various BASIC Stamp applications and allow you to put your new knowledge to work; an accompanying CD that provides all the software tools you need to begin developing PIC applications on your own. With the range of skills you'll develop using this guide, you'll see why it can be easier to build sophisticated projects with microcontrollers than with conventional electronic parts--and even more fun!

5.0 out of 5 stars Found exactly what I couldn't find elsewhere, March 23, 2000

I run a Real Estate firm dealing with new homes only. I needed to develop a tracking and building method for my onsite realtors to manage custom constrution. This is the only source I've been able to find that gave me a model to use for custom management. The local library carries one as a reference manual, and I looked at it BEFORE purchasing. Great manual!

5.0 out of 5 stars A bargain at twice the price., December 22, 1999

I believe that the dead presidents you spend on this book is one of the best investments you could make as a young business. In effect you are buying many years of research & development that otherwise you would have to do on your own.
