This book should not carry the word Professional in the title - it is basic - very basic at best. This book is all about the Intel architecture - e.g. Intel processors. The target audience for this book - as stated in the introduction - is C/C++ programmers interested in converting their (Linux) C/C++ programs to assembly language. Consider this book if you know nothing of assembly language and you want to play around with it in a Linux on Intel hardware environment. Do not buy this book if you are interested in writing anything more advanced than simple hello world real mode apps. More specifically - do not buy this book if your are interested in writing IA-32 protected mode code - none of those things are covered in the book.
