with the first edition, this is a comprehensive overview of the picaxe micro, The section on the new Mparts will help users understand the new arcitecture without throwing out their prior knowledge.
A decent book on the PICAXE family overall, but I wanted specific info on the new Mseries.

Pick Up Programming And Customizing The Picaxe Microcontroller 2/E (Programmable Controllers Series)  Constructed By David Lincoln Issued As EPub
the book, Not well integrated and not as in depth as I had hoped, Nothing you can't learn from studying the three Very informative book, Good price Thanks. A As I see many in depth reviews I will keep mine short and sweet, The book is well written and useful but the Revelation Education Picaxe manuals are up to date and complete.
I did read this book and it has a lot of good information in it but when I have a I really liked this book at first but then I encountered a lot of typos.
Even the code inside has to be checked and corrected, The information is good but the book needs proof checking and major corrections in structure, excelente material técnico de referencia, portada flexible, buena impresión, I thought this book would be a Bible of the Picaxe microcontroller, It turns out to be just stuff you can get on the Picaxe website, There is no mention of some of the commands the Picaxe is capable of as an example the macro directive.
Nothing in the index about compiler directives either although there is two pages appearing to be copied from the Picaxe manual in the book.
It's a book for school, to be on a desk when the teacher wants to refer to something.
Saves having to go to the Picaxe online manuals, The book spends time on the school experimenter board, I expected the book to go through every command available with an example use of each one, I think it is a very expensive book for the information it contains, The Picaxe forum is a better source of information, The help file from the Picaxe free Program editor is a better source of information, The book however does show how things work and what a Picaxe chip is and the pins and does have a number of examples for you to type in as the download link did not work for me.
All in all a bit of a waste of money for me, This is an excellent book for anyone who wants to learn about the immense possibilities that the PICAXE series of chips offer.
It contains basic level stuff to get you going, but also contains lots of in depth information that a serious user would want and need to know.
Despite what others have said, I don't think you could find this level of coherent in depth knowledge about the PICAXE's abilities online.
Why bother even trying when it's all here in this wonderful bookThe only thing that could improve it would be to cover the Mchips throughout they became available as the book was going to press and although there is a chapter on them, it would be better if the whole book was focused on them, as no one who is starting up with the PICAXE series is going to want to know about earlier versions, and if you have some earlier versions of the chips then they are cheap enough to sell on eBay or bin them, then just buy the Mversions with their enhanced features.
OK. This is an Excellent Book, The Best Book about Picaxe, Very Informative. You can make many projects with this book, I've tried various elements mentioned this and it has worked fine, I recommend it. I am glad that I had this book with me while learning the PICAXEM, My main interest was the serial communication and basic I/O processing and the book covers them nicely.
Yes, the manufacturer's website has the most up to date info about the chips, But this books does Package came on time in one piece, pleased, Publisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product.
