    "Abstract Syntax Notation One - The Tutorial and Reference"
     by Douglas Steedman

From the explanatory blurb:

     This book describes ASN.1 and the Basic Encoding Rules amd their roles
     in the specification and representation of protocol information. The 
     history, present status and emerging future developments are also
     described. In addition, the place of these important standards in OSI
     is explained. The book is organized in two parts. The first of these,
     the tutorial, explains ASN.1 and its many facets in a narrative style.
     All of ASN.1 is covered, including the controversial "macro" capability.
     There are copier examples intended to demonstrate all of its aspects.
     The second part is the reference. This part provides a complete
     specification of the syntax of ASN.1 as well as its many tables and
     figures.

Publication date: October 1990
Price: US $ 72.00 (includes postage and packing).
