IDA Pro's interactive interface and programmable development language provide you with complete control over code disassembly and debugging. This is the only book which focuses exclusively on the world's most powerful and popular took for reverse engineering code. *Reverse Engineer REAL...

No source code? No problem. With IDA Pro, you live in a source code-optional world. IDA can automatically analyze the millions of opcodes that make up an executable and present you with a disassembly. But at that point, your work is just beginning. With The IDA Pro Book, you'll learn how to turn that mountain of mnemonics into something you can actually use. Hailed by the creator of IDA Pro as the "long-awaited" and "information-packed" guide to IDA, The IDA Pro Book covers everything from the very first steps to advanced automation techniques. While other disassemblers slow your analysis...

Drill down into the details of the .NET runtime and IL assembly language with help from one of the language's designers! Most books about .NET programming are devoted to high-level languages in RAD environments. But what about the plumbing? This book drills down into the internal structures and operations of the .NET common language runtime and teaches you how to master the IL assembly language (ILAsm), which fully describes these structures and operations. The rule of thumb is that if the runtime can do it, ILAsm must be able to express it. You'll learn everything you need to know about...
