x64 Assembly Language Step-by-Step 4th Edition

x64 Assembly Language Step-by-Step, 4th Edition by Jeff Duntemann is a practical, approachable guide that demystifies low-level programming for developers and students worldwide. Written with clarity and real-world focus, this edition brings the fundamentals of x86-64 (x64) assembly into sharp relief, making complex concepts accessible without sacrificing technical depth.

Start grasping machine-level thinking quickly through clear explanations, carefully worked examples, and progressive exercises that build confidence. Duntemann walks you through instruction sets, registers, calling conventions, memory addressing, and stack manipulation, then shows how those pieces combine in real programs. The book emphasizes hands-on learning: readable code snippets, annotated disassembly, and step-by-step walkthroughs that illuminate how compilers translate high-level languages into efficient machine instructions.

Whether you’re a systems programmer, embedded developer, compiler writer, or a curious software engineer aiming to optimize performance, this edition equips you with practical skills for modern x64 platforms. You’ll learn debugging techniques, performance tuning strategies, and how to interpret assembly produced by mainstream toolchains on Windows and Linux. The tone remains professional yet engaging, ideal for classroom use or self-study.

Enhance your toolkit with a foundational understanding of how software truly runs, improving your ability to write faster, smaller, and more secure code. Readers across the US, Europe, Asia, and beyond will find this a reliable reference and a rewarding learning journey.

Add x64 Assembly Language Step-by-Step, 4th Edition to your library to master assembly concepts in a clear, methodical way and take your systems-level skills to the next level.
