Embedded Linux primer

Good introduction to the embedded world. As with all books of technical nature, some of the material is a bit dated.

Great book which has a lot in general but not in details. As introduction is OK and have lot of references to look for details.

Author is knowledgeable on the subject he is covering but too often the book just scratches the surface of the topics as if the goal was to paint the big picture rather than to "teach others how to fish on their own". To make a simple analogy with university that book would be the material provided during Lecture time instead of the more practical and condensed guides you receive for Lab time.
