This book seems to be a very thorough treatment of VHDL (I'm no expert, so take that as it is). The book is well written and cohesive. I've been using this book in various forms since college, and I'm *still* using it. I like it.
HOWEVER
Just like the second edition Kindle version (which I finally got fed up with and was refunded), the third edition was clearly not edited after the Kindle conversion process. Take as an example Table 2.2: This is supposed to be a table of the VHDL operators, but tell me, what does the operator "sllsrlorlror" do? According to the table, it is the "shift-left logicalshift-right logicalrotate leftrotate right"
Of course I understand what's going on here, and I can figure it out. But I shouldn't *have* to. It's wonderful that this book is available in the Kindle format. It's one more heavy book I don't have to lug around. But the quality is just not acceptable. This is a five-star book with one-star editing.
PLEASE fix this book!

I have been using the second edition extensively for a quite a while and was looking forward to getting the updated third edition. As with the second edition the content seems to be very good - I have not had time to read it yet, but I was immediately disappointed in the print quality. The quality is close that of a paperback novel and the figures, where there are gray-scale shading involved looks like they have been photocopied. Maybe I have a "dud" copy. I would very much appreciate if other users can confirm this.
