In either case, the structure of the work is more suited to the dedicated coder than to the hobbyist. Assembly tools, debuggers and integration with higher level languages is emphasized in a package presentation. The amateur might wish to get started with smaller, and less utilitarian, experiments. Nevertheless, this is a very complete coverage of Intel assembly language. Assembler instruction format, memory, data structures, program flow, BIOS and DOS services, keyboard, video, disks, peripherals, and resident programs all get discussed. Appendices provide useful references including instruction sets and interrupt lists. Topics such as protected mode programming and 32-bit operations are beyond the scope of the book, but all the basics are here. copyright Robert M.
