I have this book.

I'm not sure I'd recommend it to an absolute beginner, but it does take you through assembler code in a way that attempts to explain to a beginner what is going on and the niceties of writing programs.

Having said that, I wouldn't discount buying the book, even if you were to find it a little advanced, the ideas would set you thinking, and the book would then suddenly come in to view so to speak.

Even if faith is lacking, and hope is non existent, you always have charity and compassion to offer.
