This book is wonderful. It fully explains async and isochronous packets, the various layers, electrical components, etc... This book is wonderful for anyone wishing to gain a good understanding of FireWire's inner workings.
A must-read Introduction to 1394
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
If you need a good intro to the 1394 spec, this book is a must-read. While the 1394 professional may find it somewhat redundant, Don Anderson's book is a God-send for the 1394 novice (in fact Mr. Anderson did specify his book was meant as an introduction). This book helped answer many of my questions and clarify some points which had been previously fuzzy. Especially useful are his diagrams and asynchronous/isochronous comparisons (Very useful if you're going from the asynchronous world to 1394 or even USB). Should be read along with the 1394 spec for optimum impact and benefit.

An excellent introduction to the IEEE 1394 standard
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This book provides an excellent reference of the IEEE 1394 standard. It is written in easy-to-understand language, and is comprehensive in it's coverage. I have not opened my copy of the IEEE 1394-1995 standard since purchasing this book.
Good book, many misprints and typos
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
As is typical of Mindshare books, this book was concise and instructional. However, the misprints and typographical errors averaged about two per page. Sometimes, incorrectly stated information would lead the reader to incorrect conclusions about FireWire. I hope that the next edition will fix the many errors.
