Zephyr RTOS Embedded C Programming: Using Embedded RTOS POSIX API First Edition

To be honest, I haven't read much of this book. But the reason is that I haven't been able to find much of practical use, or that isn't documented much more clearly in the online Zephyr documentation. When I started a huge Zephyr project on a Nordic MCU last year I was familiar with the Nordic chips but with their older non-RTOS SDK, and was new to Zephyr. I was really hopeful, when I saw this book about to come out, that this would provide a good overview of Zephyr, and also include some real world examples of best practices for accomplishing common tasks.Because I was already deep into the project by the time the book came out, I had already learned much of it by trial and error, reading the online Zephyr documents, scanning the Nordic DevZone discussions and so forth. Since I got the Kindle version of the book, I have searched it many times for more information about a problem or concept I was struggling with, but every time the search was a dead end. Either the topic was not covered at all (really? No examples of how to use the different UART API's?) or the text was too vague or confusing compared to just reading the online documents or looking at example code.It's too bad. There is a need for a book that serves as a good reference or good tutorial on Zephyr. So far I haven't found this book to be very good at either.

The book was cut wrong.

This isn’t a content review. I can’t review content until I cut the pages apart with a letter opener.
