I'm new to ARM.
If one wants to learn about ARM - using the Freescale FRDM-KL25Z, what is the best or a good book to use?
Thanks
You mentioned you teach in your other question. So I assume you would be at a University. If so, under the ARM University Program, we have what is called a Lab-in-a-Box (LiB), hardware and software replete with teaching materials, made BY and FOR academics, spanning everything from lecture slides for a semester-long course, lecture notes, exercises with solutions, lab experiments with solutions to projects and sample midterm and final exams with solutions. Incidentally and interestingly, there is just the kind of LiB you may be interested in on the FRDM KL25Z. University faculty can request a DONATION of this LiB online using an official email ID the following way. We do of course qualify the request first, so please submit your request to the best level of detail.
Hope the above helps. These teaching materials along with Joseph Yiu's books and pointers would surely get you going in the best possible manner.

HI Sadanand,
Is this offer available for Maker or Hackerspace too ? or if any individual would like to host a community event for learning can they apply for this programme too ?
Hi,
For Maker and Hackerspace, mbed.org might be better. It already has a very large user community (It think it has over 50K users). And some of the users also have their local groups and events.
While the boards are not free, many of them are very low cost. For example, the Freescale board mentioned by Donald is less than 10 UK pounds.
The tool chain is free to use and the SDK is open source.
If you want something specific on learning DSP, I know that Donld Reay (a different Donald, also a lecturer) is going to publish a book called Digital Signal Processing and Applications Using the ARM Cortex M4: Donald Reay: 9781118859049: Amazon.com: Books
regards,
Joseph
