So Far I have been using it alot to figure out how to program the assembly for a pic, very useful

An excellent introduction, text, and reference

I recommend this book without qualification! After a disappointing encounter with the popular Predko book, I bought John Peatman's book sight unseen. I was not disappointed. This book has strong content, writing, and organization. It supplies all the information I needed to get started and it moves smoothly to advanced programming and applications. The only surprise, after Predko's book, was that Peatman focuses on the larger packages, with no mention of the 18- and 8-pin devices; however, since the features of the larger devices are a superset of the smaller devices, it is easy to understand (and use) the smaller devices using this text. Peatman covers all the advances peripheral interface features of the high-end PICs. Although I am not using such features today, I am happy to have a well-written and thorough reference in my possession. An excellent book!

OUTSTANDING!

I learned more in the first 30 pages of this book than in weeks of looking at data sheets and ap-notes.This book covers EVERYTHING you ever wanted to know about high-end (PIC16C6x and PIC16C7x) PIC microcontrollers. Most of the information applies equally to the popular PIC16F84.If you're going to use PIC microcontrollers, get this book!

Mr. Peatman has done an excellent job explaining the "PIC".

This was a very well written book. He has chapters on I2C, LCD interfacing, UARTs and the A/D. In my opinion this is well worth the price for the education received.

Concise, readable design guide suitable for beginners.

Unlike many of the current micro-controller texts currently available which extoll the history of the technology and earlier (re. out of date information), this text is refreshingly to the point. It focuses on current PIC controllers (could use an addendum for newest additions) and current interface components such as rotary encoders and LCD displays suitable for low cost design. Additionally, instead of the classical approach to assembly language pedagogy, the text instead, takes a template approach in which the requirements of simple PIC microprograms are developed first and then more complex techniques are introduced. Several examples are presented towards the end of the text -- but the exposition does not rest on these cases. It is firmly based on practical design partitioning and accommodation of constraints. Overall, the best of the several PIC texts and indeed, several microcontroller texts I have reviewed.
