Programming with Linux
The eagerly anticipated new edition of the bestsellingThe long-awaited third edition of this bestselling introduction
to assembly language has been completely rewritten to focus on
32-bit protected-mode Linux and the free NASM assembler. Assembly
is the fundamental language bridging human ideas and the pure
silicon hearts of computers, and popular author Jeff Dunteman
retains his distinctive lighthearted style as he presents a
step-by-step approach to this difficult technical discipline.
He starts at the very beginning, explaining the basic ideas of
programmable computing, the binary and hexadecimal number systems,
the Intel x86 computer architecture, and the process of software
development under Linux. From that foundation he systematically
treats the x86 instruction set, memory addressing, procedures,
macros, and interface to the C-language code libraries upon which
Linux itself is built.
