Please consider the Introduction to PCI Express* as an alternative
The first book to offer detailed interpretations of the PCI Express* specifications, The Complete PCI Express* Reference was written as a comprehensive resource for hardware and software developers designing PCI Express-based systems.
Implications of critical technical considerations developers must understand are explained in detail. Illustrations and cross-references not found in the PCI Express specifications offer unique insight into the benefits and limitations of specific design choices. The Complete PCI Express* Reference gives developers the basis to know their PCI Express design is correct and complete.
