That PDF was the best one I've honestly found on the net, but if you don't like that try http://www.xs4all.nl/~smit/asm01001.htm . The PDF is a lot more detailed, though.

Is there a microprocessor or microcontroller inparticular that you are trying to learn? That would help us direct in the proper direction.

With the risc of spamming, I'd like to recomend an assembler, the flatassembler (fasm, http://flatassembler.net ), thought sadly there aren't too many getting started with asm tutorials for it (yet) thought :/ (there's work in progress)
But there are some examples avalible (both win, linux, DOS, etc).
It's got a syntax rather similar to nasm (and the tasm ideal mode), it's self compileable (thus it's written in asm, not C/C++). (eg it has the same way of addressing/referencing memory)

Here's one for MASM (what I used in college and which I still have all the programs we did - somewhere I think): http://webster.cs.ucr.edu/Page_TechDocs/MASMDoc/

This, indeed, is a good book: http://www.drpaulcarter.com/pcasm/

But, i would actually recommend the book "Programming from the ground up" (it's espacially for linux assembly and it uses AT&T syntax which is kind of similar to the Intel one). It's a great book !

Two notes on the Microsoft As embler:
1) MASM is for windows driver development only (read the EULA - it's really restrictive, dissallows anything not for windows. iirc the latest EULA only allows drivers to be developed with it - not 100% sure though, as I've been free of masm for a while now)
2) It's getting pretty dead, last thing I heard was that the latest version of MASM isn't really that good (read: more or less unsuported from MS, )

btw, there are two forums I used to visit back in teh win32asm days, though they (read some users, which I'm not naming) more or less freak out when they hear about linux/OpenSource - so if you're going to do any form of linux asm MASM is not what you should/can(legally or practically) use.
Else, if you're going to use MASM for windows, try out Hutch's masm package - that's what I used (after briefly staring with nasm, and realising that nasm (atleast was at the time) dead) before my switch to fasm.

a decent book for learnig assembly and how registers and hardware compents work, which helps out a shit load when you start to make low level software, try

Fundementals of Computer Architechure, Mark Burrell, Pallgrave MacMillian Publishing
