Assembly Language for the PC - 3rd Edition - John Socha/Peter Norton c. 1992
Book: 644 pages
Diskette: 720K in IMA format
Note: There is also a different pdf of this book here: https://archive.org/details/assemblylanguage00soch
(First published in 1989) 3rd Edition includes chapters on 286 and 386 architecture. "Also, the third edition has chapters about mixing assembler and high level languages like C and PASCAL. Passing function parameters to and from the assembler routines is explained in detail."
"As a bonus, there is a library with an unambiguous name – SOCHALIB containing a lot of very useful routines for the screen, mouse and the keyboard. I was delightfully impressed that a routine putting a character on the screen used a pre-calculated lookup table to compute an address of the screen line base instead of multiplying Y times 80 directly. I suspect the code of the library resides somewhere inside the Norton Commander and Norton Utilities, and it explains why these products worked blazingly fast." - https://demin.ws/blog/english/2012/11/04/norton-assembly-language-book/
NOTE: Lest there be any confusion - Peter Norton did not code Norton Commander. nor Norton Utils, nor most everything with the Norton/Symantec name on it. John Socha is the coder behind Norton Commander up thru v 3.x, and most of the in-house stuff before Norton went on a permanent buy and bury lifestyle choice. What Peter Norton, a Buddhist trained entrepreneur had, was incredible market savvy and timing.
