Title: The Art of Assembly Language by Randall Hyde ISBN: 1-886411-97-2 Publisher: No Starch Press Pub. Date: September, 2003 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $59.95 |

Summary: Very satisified
Comment: I give this book an A++. I can't put it down. The approach used by Hyde to teach assembly seems to be aimed at everybody, whether you know nothing about assembly, or you've been programming in a bunch of high-level languages for ages. I'm learning more from the AoA material than I've learned my whole life. I feel like Hyde knows how to reach his readers and get his point(s) across very well. Setting up HLA for Windows is very easy and the instructions for doing this are clear. If you get stumped over something, there's even a mailing list you can join to get answers to anything you want, so you're really getting more than a book; you're getting a guarantee that you will *learn* assembly language programming and all of the things that go along with it.

Summary: Finally, A Book That Really Teaches Assembly
Comment: This is the first book I've ever read that has made assembly language programming understandable. The HLA assembler that comes with this book is a Godsend. I have tried to learn assembly using NASM and MASM in the past, they were too confusing. The HLA assembler that this book uses made learning assembly language easy. The HLA assembler is one of best things about this book. I figure if I can learn assembly language with The Art of Assembly Language, then anybody can learn with this book. I also like the fact that everything in the book works for Windows and Linux. The other thing worth mentioning is all the documentation that appears on the CD-ROM with this book. What a great resource!

Summary: Good for what it is.
Comment: As another reviewer said, this book should be called "The Art of HIGH LEVEL Assembly Language." This is a great book. It is well written and has includes a CD-ROM chock full of good stuff. Problem is that if you want to use MASM, NASM, TASM or some other assembler that uses real ASM you will likely be confused as the HLA stuff that you learned from this book will not totally apply to traditional ASM. If you are wanting to learn ASM and eventually use NASM and other normal assemblers (ie: not HLA) then you might be better off with a book like "Assembly Language for Intel-Based Computers (4th Edition)" by Kip R. Irvine or my favorite "Introduction to 80X86 Assembly Language and Computer Architecture" by Richard C. Detmer.
