  Others: Amiga Assembly Language Programming by Tab Books.  I've
also got the Abacus book.  I recommend them both, as there are
extremely inexpensive ($13.95 and $19.95, respectively), and cover
different aspects for programming assembly on the Amiga.  I'd also
recommend a straight 68000 handbook for reference (there are quite a
few out there, but try to find one that fills its pages with
examples and techniques, not pages and pages of one long program).
There's a new one out called "680X0 Programming by Example"
($17.95), a sequel to "68000, 68010,68020 Primer", with hundreds of
examples and practical applications [this was a quote from Ahoy's
AmigaUser]. From Howard W. Sams & Company, 317-298-5400.  I've got a
couple of their books for C and they're pretty good.
