Customer Reviews & Comments
This review is from: Computer Technician's Handbook (Paperback)
Written in layman's terms, Art Margolis exposes the complex world of computers in a friendly, easy to read format. The text is accompanied by numerous illustrations and charts. This is an excellent beginner's book. CTH is also an enjoyable and informative "read" for the programmer. A significant portion of the book explains the interactions of discreet components on a logical or bitwise level, using numerous block diagrams for additional clarity. This book provides an introduction to instruction sets, assemblers, and architecture of 8-32 bit processors. The text is somewhat dated because of its publication date. As a beginner's book however, much of its contents are applicable to the budding computer technician.
