    Review quote
    This text is the antithesis of dry and academic. Its pages cogently present detail, but that detail is provided in order that the reader can understand completely how something works and, therefore, how that something can be used to meet a need. The combination of "observations" and "checkpoints" is very useful in permitting students to incrementally test their understanding of material as they encounter it.
    Main description
    This book employs a bottom-up educational approach with an overall educational objective of allowing students to discover how the computer interacts with its environment through learning basic computer architecture, assembly language programming, as well as through an introduction to interfacing. Developed around the Freescale 9S12, this book describes both the general processes and the specific details involved in microcomputer simulation. In particular, detailed case studies are used to illustrate fundamental concepts, and laboratory assignments are provided.
