One that I am presently considering is: "VLSI Design" by M. Michael Vai CRC Press 2000 ISBN 0-8493-1876-9 $89.95 I can scan a promo flyer they sent me if there is interest. It has the table of contents listed. I would also like to hear from you if you happen across anything not listed in your initial message. As for a book written around Magic am I curious what it would cover. IF you envision somting similar to the Uyemura book using L-Edit, my opinion is why?? I can't see why anyone would buy such a book since Magic is already free and comes with decent tutorials. - Mark Martin JHU/APL "Philippe O.
