    5.0 out of 5 stars The author's style is clear and easy to understand and I found this book

    The author's style is clear and easy to understand and I found this book, like the first, very readable. This gives confidence and the feeling that it's not so difficult after all. For me Monk's books have been an excellent companion into the world of Arduino with each section giving a good introduction to each subject. I found I was quite quickly able to progress to relatively complex areas with this book's help. As the author says the books are primarily about the software with the first giving a good start in C and the second building on practical topics. Thoroughly recommended.

    Endlich!

    Also endlich mal ein Buch für den schon fortgeschrittenen Arduinista.

    Nette Hinweise mit brauchbaren Beispielen.
    Nichts was die Welt in ihren Grundfesten erschüttern würde, aber doch "good stuff".

    Programmieren sollte man etwas können.
    Begriffe wie "digital io" oder Kürzel wie "ADC" sollten geläufig sein.

    Wer des Englischen mächtig und den Arduino-Kinderschuhen entwachsen ist sollte
    es riskieren dieses Buch zu lesen.
    Hey, das Ding kostet keine 16€ und ist *wirklich* nützlich.

    Fazit:
    Wenn man natürlich schon *alles* über den ATmega weiss, dann doch lieber nicht.
    Oder wenn man noch nix weiss (also noch ganz am Anfang steht), dann lieber noch warten.
    Für alle dazwischen ein gutes und vor allem informatives Buch.

    I have several of Simon's book both for Arduino and recently the Raspberry PI. I like his writing style and find it very clear, concise and yet easy going. He packs a ton of information and supporting material and does it in a way that I find enjoyable. His intro book Programming Arduino Getting Started with Sketches got me hooked on the Arduino. Next Steps is now taking me to new levels of understanding and ideas. I am looking forward to finishing this and his Programming the Rasberry PI.

    Ho imparato molte cose non facili da trovare altrove in questo libro che si spinge oltre le solite guide introduttive per approfondire aspetti relativi all'architettura, alle performances ed agli 'internals' delle varie schede arduino per darti una visione molto più approfondita delle potenzialità della piattaforma.
    E' il miglior libro su Arduino che abbia letto ad oggi.
    Altamente raccomandato.
