   These days, when you've got a 1K+ page manual you know it's the actual   
   manual.  If it's 10 pages it's just a 'product brief' that shows some basic   
   information about the chip but not nearly enough to program it (contact the   
   OEM and they'll make you sign an NDA for the actual details, and maybe only   
   if you're going to buy a million units).   
      
   Most of the time you can ignore huge chunks of the manual - if you never use   
   the CAN bus transceiver, skip that section.  But better to have the   
   information there if you need it.
