PCI & PCI-X Hardware and Software (Architecture and Design)

Summary: My PCI Bible
Review: I've written code for two projects that required me to do the PCI device drivers myself. I could not have completed them without this book. It looks as if it might be helpful for a hardware engineer as well.

There are other, more "user friendly" books out there, but the other books I tried to use didn't have the wealth of information this one does. It contains the spec, commentary, and useful notes. It doesn't hold your hand and guide you through the development process. If you need that, buy another book, *in addition* to this one.

Bottom line: If you need to develop code to operate a PCI bus device, and you don't have a device driver, get this book. The price of the book is *nothing* compared to the time it will save you.
