This review is from: Power Macintosh Programming Starter Kit (Paperback)

Power Macintosh Programming Starter Kit is an excellent book on PowerPC programming. Mr. Thompson has gone to great lengths to present as much information on the inards of PowerPC programming that the average programmer can handle. The code examples were very informative, and the example programs were actually useful. Recommended for anyone who is interested in PPC programming.
