Format:Paperback
Starts with a briefly outline of the history of microcontrollers. Then describes the AVR processor family in detail. A well written chapter. Getting into programming the AVR's and looking at some hardware concepts like connecting to RS232, RS422/423, RS485, SPI, Microwire, I2c, Parallel port, ISA-bus, IrDA link and CAN. What I like the most are the 10 projects. A well written book with a lot of information.

I recently purchased Mr Gadre's AVR book. I believe that it is a well organised book with lots of material for the beginner as well as an experienced embedded designer.
The book starts off with basics about embedded systems, a review of microprocessor architecture before moving onto the AVR details.
It has an excellent chapter on communication protocols and links, and how these could be used with the AVR controller, reading which, I learnt a lot.
Later chapters cover fabrication and code development issues. The best part is the 10 or so working projects, which demonstrate the true power of AVR controllers.
In all, this is a highly recommended book for anyone wanting to learn about microcontrolelrs in general and AVR in particular and I am satistifed that I purchased it.

Format:Paperback
This is a book that was written with little idea of what it was trying to achieve. There is insufficient theoretical content to call it an academic book; there is too little practical advice to make it a beginner's book, and coding is not handled in sufficient detail to make it a programmer's manual. The coding aspect is perhaps the most serious: only a few code listings are shown in the book, with the reader having to print examples from the CD-ROM as required. Only one or two listings are discussed in detail, with no descriptions of good programming techniques. The assembler commands are only briefly described, and even that is poorly done. All in all, there is insufficient good information to justify the expense: I shall be looking around for a better book.

Nothing here you won't find explained a lot better online
This book is total rubbish in my opinion. If you've read the Atmel pdf datasheets, you've basically read the bulk of this book. Read more

Pretty decent Introduction
The material is pretty well aimed at the reasonably aware engineer/hobbyist, I.E. Intermediate level. Let me start with the bad and then move to the good.
