Mastering Assembly Programming: From instruction set to kernel module with Intel processor

Complete

This book is trash.

This book gives an excellent introduction into low-level programming and assembly programming itself. It gives you just an idea of how everything works and so you'll not become a guru after reading this book, you'll just have something common in your mind, some idea you will be able to use later. There are another books with better quality of assembly programming teaching but this one is good for the beginners too.I liked it especially for this kind of introduction like "explain like I am five" - you'll not know everything in really low-level details but you'll be able to dive into it later. I also realized how this book is good after reading the "Low Level Programming" by Igor Zhirkov (Apress): you already know enough to read the latter one but the LLP is actually much more good in explaining details than the "Mastering Assembly Programming".As a summary, I'd suggest to start learning assembly programming from this book and then go to the "Low level programming" after.
