2.0 out of 5 stars
Good, but not quite the book I was looking for.,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: PC Based Instrumentation and Control, Third Edition (Paperback)
A large portion of the book is dedicated to the history, design, and evolution of the PC. While it seems well written and is interesting, it is not particularly important to the topic of the book which is PC-based instrumentation and control. A little less than half the book (chapters 8-13) seems to be dedicated to the topic and is not as detailed as the first half the book which is not really on topic.

Useless book for practical purposes,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: PC Based Instrumentation and Control, Third Edition (Paperback)
Purely theoretical book. It very very little to C and C++ and the example is of a key board input. Being the book about instrumentation and control this is seems totally off.
This book is USELESS for practical purposes. If I wanted history and theory of pc instrumentation I would have gone to wikipedia. What a waste of money.
2.0 out of 5 stars
Out Dated Book,
This review is from: PC-based Instrumentation and Control, Second Edition (IDC Technology) (Hardcover)
This book is out of date. There's no mention of the USB serial interface or how to use it for PC-based instrumentation in this book. I should have bought a newer edition.
