Verilog HDL - A Guide to Digital Design and Synthesis[edit]

Looks like a publicity blurb. But once we strip out the (probable) self-promotion I don't think there's enough there for an article. (The article has lots of links, but they are about Verilog, not about the book). I own this book and it's a good book, but there are many good Verilog books and I see no reason why this particular one is notable, and I find it hard to think of anything which will make it notable in future.

Delete: I agree with Adpete: this is a technical guide, not the Bible. And given how similar the structure is to the first few pages of any technical guide or computing book, I'm even wondering if this isn't a case of WP:COPYRIGHT (i.e. literal copy of the first three pages). -- BenTels (talk) 15:58, 22 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
