Good Introduction, Joe! Where is the next?

Like many people, I came to Assembly from C++. Most Assembly books were hard for me because I needed a book that addresses Assembly for those who know C/C++. This book does exactly that. It shows clearly the differences and parallels between both languages. Using this book from your knowledge of C/C++, you would be able to learn Assembly. All programs that I have tested so far finely assemble in TASM. I wish Joe would write a second edition and address other issues he left because this is just an introductory small book. It is really wonderful.

An excellent book, I even wrote Joe Carthy a thank you note!

If you still have unanswered questions about the addressing modes, relationship between C and Assembly, this small book will simplify it for you. I wish there would be more computer books by Joe Carthy. It was a joy to read this one!
