Alpha RISC Architecture for Programmers: With CD

This book is an excellent reference source for any programmer/developer working on any server that is powered by the ALPHA processor, desiring to know what really goes on under the hood. The only negative point that I can make is the information on Windows NT platform is outdated since Microsoft doesn't support NT on Alpha anymore.The examples are well done in C and ALPHA assembler. The author covers both the VMS & Unix platforms.I highly recommend the use of this book. It stays close by on my bookshelf.
