Can any one suggest me a good book on embedded system?



Your question is way to vague. However, many online book shops include reviews. Alternatively try here:

"Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" by Hunter S Thompson, because it's the best book about anything, ever.

Hi,

Embedded Primer by David E.Simon Programming Emb.Systems in C/C++ by Michel Barr.

This on-line book carries Jack Ganssle's reccomendation as a grea introduction to micros in general even though it bases itself on the 6805

Advert Alert! My book "Excel by Example : A Microsoft Excel Cookbook for Electronic Engineers" published by Elsevier/Newnes ISBN 0750677562 covers many topic pertinent to embedded design. It includes chapters on baud rate selection counting machine cycles, 8052 register setup and associated topics lik character generation, resistor value calculation for voltag references/regulators and other electronic functions. It also include topics on interfacing Excel to external instrumentation through the seria and parallel ports.

I hope this doesn't offend anyone.

In the process, I came across the following syntax for forming a bit = mask. Consider this from the manual (page 161):
