I wouldn&#x27;t necessarily read it cover to cover. I did that with volume 1 and found it interesting, but I could have done without the assembly implementations. Assembly is highly dependent on the hardware capabilities. It feels to me like C or some other close to the metal language would have been more useful.<p>I keep volumes 1 and 2 on my desk in case I ever need to refer to them for information about a specific topic, but I have yet to actually open them.
