Summary: Just use it
Comment: First the good news: Very few books give a total picture of assembler code. Usually they are text books, but this is a real hands on book to learn lot of assembler structures. How does a programs laid out(executible file format), what library functions get statically linked, and how they are resolved, how does relocation works, how does loader loads etc., etc. You would find a long lasting knowledge from this book. IF YOU ARE A SYSTEM AND/OR KERNEL MODE PROGRAMMER, IT IS A MUST. But need to go thru the exercises...

Bad news is that it seems like the examples are not tried out with MS visual studio 6.0. You will find the code generation is different, due to some inline library code (ie, strcmp() and others). It does have other mistakes in the programming, as well as in the text. Stack based code execution at the end of the book does not seem to do its job.

But still it is an excellent book to read and go thru those examples to become fairly fluent with large assembler codes, and their working. WHEN THE INFORMATION BASE IS HUGE, LOOK FOR STRUCTURE, AVOID THE DETAIL UNTIL NEEDED, this is precisely this book follows. Nothing could be worse than ignorance, so go grab one !!!

Summary: Great Read
Comment: I bought this book without my knowledge of the author. Its a quick read and spends the majority of the time explaining how to find programming structs in compiled code. Its aimed at windows and visual c++, and IDA Pro. With out much trouble I was able to follow along with linux, gcc, and objdump. If you are intrested in this subject, this book is a must.

Summary: Very Good ( BEST )
Comment: This book will make you evil and suggested to people who curious about binary audit. I think the author revealed too much but it's good for us to have a better secure software and good combination with shellcoders handbook.
