Does anybody out there know of a good alternative to the textbook used by
the University of Maryland for CMSC 311, Computer Organization?  
The course is using "Computer Systems Architecture" by M. Morris Mano and 
frankly it's a piece of shit.  This book lacks sufficient examples for
me to be able to solve the problems at the end of each chapter.  I would
prefer a textbook that explains Boolean Algebra and Karnaugh Mapping in
greater detail.  Any assistance in locating a supplemental textbook for 
this course would be appreciated.
