Title: USB Explained by Steven McDowell, Martin D. Seyer ISBN: 0-13-081153-X Publisher: Prentice Hall PTR Pub. Date: 24 September, 1998 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $34.99 |
Average Customer Rating: 2 (7 reviews)

Summary: Not explained, just "overviewed"
Comment: This book gives you 130 pages of USB overview (which you probably already know) and 200 pages of useless tables of for instance the Pinout for the VGA-cable. As the "Editorial Revies" notes this book is "written in laymans terms" which I interpret as containing-to-little-specific-info and is much to general to be used for anything but a brief overview.
Rating: 2
Summary: 50% of this book is NOT USB information
Comment: This book provides a good overview of USB but I was disappointed to find that the appendices began when I was half way through the book. The entire 2nd half of the book is tables of information which has no connection to USB. Tables like Sony's CD ROM header pinout and the NuBus 90. I think the authors ran out of time or material and the publisher made the book look bigger by including all this extra doo-dah. There is nothing in the book's description on-line or on its covers that would let you know that it is 50% USB and 50% filler. I felt a bit ripped off.
Rating: 4
Summary: A very good intro to the USB world.
Comment: This book did exactly what the title implied. I now have enough info on USB to continue more indepth study of it. I only hope I can find a more advanced book written in such a manner as this book was, making studing easy and fun.
