Fast and Effective Embedded Systems Design: Applying the ARM mbed Paperback – Illustrated, 22 Sept. 2016

This is by far the best introduction to Embedded Systems programming I have ever read, and I have read widely on the subject. What's also impressive is it uses the ARM Mbed which is an up to date platform rather than taking another bite at the AVR Arduino system, which, whilst excellent, has been overtaken by progress. I recommend this to professionals, students and amateurs. If I have one criticism it's that the Author could have chosen to use a less expensive target board, expansion board combination.

This is an excellent book. Although aimed at an academic readership, it also covers the interests of hobbyists. Three good points:(1) It is well written,(2) it has few errors, and(3) it has many interesting examples and exercises.

Very good book indeed. Aimed at the beginner, but covers a wide range of topics including radio communications (Zigbee, Bluetooth) so even experts may find this useful.

Much expanded over 1st Edition. Great.

It's good and it has cutting edge stuff.
