and somehow I doubt that book cost $80 originally!
the second edition is still in print and is indeed an $80+ book, see
Computer Literacy Bookstore listing below. the first edition (1992) was
somewhat cheaper ($70) but is out of print. sounds like an interesting
book...

Summary:
KEY BENEFIT: Fueled by example and application, this text takes
readers on an in-depth, hands-on exploration of the hardware and
software--giving equal treatment to both--of the Intel 8088 microprocessor.
KEY TOPICS: After examining more than 60 different applications,
Antonakos guides readers through the construction and programming of their
own 8088-based computer. The Second Edition expands coverage to include
completely new topics while it updates treatments of existing topics, both
in an overall effort to allow greater access to the power of the personal
computer.
