Embedded systems and the kitchen sink

摘要

Reviewed in this issue Embedded Systems Handbook, edited by Richard Zurawski (CRC Press, 2005, ISBN 0-84-932824-1, 1160 pp., $139.95). Zurawski has done a good job of covering the broad topic of embedded systems. The book offers something to almost everyone in the field: A reader new to embedded systems but grounded in software and computer architecture can gain a broad and solid understanding of embedded systems; a seasoned embedded-systems technologist will gain an understanding of new application areas and new ways of addressing old problems more efficiently.
