I really like "Introduction to 64 Bit Assembly Programming for Linux and OS X: For Linux and OS X" by Ray Seyfarth. It's short and you actually implement something interesting like the correlation function or basic data structures, like linked list.

I've been looking to buy "Introduction to 64 Bit Assembly Programming for Linux and OS X: Third Edition - for Linux and OS X". It's an introduction to x84-64 assembly, which I thought makes sense for me to learn, because it is the architecture all my computers use.
You say x86 is not a good choice to learn, but this book purports to make assembly for this architecture accessible. If you stand by your opinion, are there even CPUs readily available that support the alternative architectures you mention?
Also, can anyone recommend this or any other book or learning resource?
