Good book but not worth the current prices

Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2003

After waiting patiently for a seller who was going to sell this book for a reasonable price, I got one for about twenty dollars. While this book has a lot of good information, a lot of it is obsolete and you'll really have a hard time justifying spending the kind of money people are asking for it.
I have a lot of assembly books and I will rate this one as an advanced book but you can still get a good education from it if you know the basics of assembly language. In my opinion, the difficulty of the language is over rated. A great book to learn the language is : "Assembly Language for Intel Based Processors (4th Edition)" by Irvine. (emphasis on 4th edition cos it covers 32 bit coding)

Nice if you want to learn tips&tricks and nothing more

Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2005

This is 5 stars if you want to learn only tips&tricks an learn nothing about assembly. After you read this book you know how to write to files in assembly, how to paint a image on the screen....

However this 'master class' learn you nearly nothing about assembly programming. It's just a tips&tricks book. In a tips&tricks world you don't survive, because your tips will be soon obsolete. You can better learn the ideas behind the tips. You do need to have a great insight in the fundamentals. With fundamentals I mean: how to make and call procedures. How to pass parameters to procedures in assembly, how are instructions processed by the processors etc.

If you're looking for fundamentals in low level programming I would recommend 'Assembly Language and Computer Architecture Using C++ and Java' bij Mr. Reis (ISBN 0534405274).

Advanced, know your assembler before treading here!

Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2002

Don't get me wrong this book is awesome. Just know a fair amount of assembler before coming to this book. Goes into great detail on difficult subjects or subjects rarely covered in other books. Proteteced mode, advanced video, data compression, pentium, advanced sound, viruses, advanced low-level disk access and DMA are all covered. My only beef is no PCI coverage, it only seems natural that an advanced book cover this along with the advanced ISA. Oh well 5 stars anyway for all the excellent coverage elsewhere. Although approaching the *outdated material* realm it does go to profound lengths to enable you to write real world assembler for todays still active processors.

A good book for those with experiance with x86 assembly

Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 1997

This book does not serve as a tutorial to learn assembly; rather it goes into many uses of assembly, such as reverse engineering, and protection from a virus. If you know assembly already, and want to use it more effectively, this would be a good book

Gute Lektüre…

…zur Vertiefung des Themas der Assembler-Progrmmierung. Wenn auch fremdsprachig, ist der Schreibstil gut, sodass man dennoch sauber folgen kann.
Ich empfehle es weiter…

Disappointing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 16, 2011

Not a masterclass more like incoherant babbling with a masterclass in tables of information. A masterclass would show you how to apply knowledge in a practical way, which is easy to do in assembler. It's because of bad teachers that make people think assembler is hard work. Glad I bought the book for a penny secondhand. Next time I want a masterclass, I'll write my own book.
