Dekker & Joseph M Newcomer Publisher: Addison-Wesley ISBN: 0-201-69590-1 This book uses a layered approach, i.e. look at all the problems from a high level, then look at the problem from a more detailed view, some people love this approach others don't. The feature I like the most about the book is the organization of the later chapters, where everything you wanted to know about a subject is well laid out in one place. The other outstanding item in this book is the index, look for something there and it will point you to the real meat. Title: "Windows NT Device Driver Development" Authors: Peter Viscarola and W. Anthony Mason Publisher: MacMillan Technical ISBN: 1-57870-058-2 Since I learned NT device driver writing from the authors of this book, I'm most comfortable with it. This is the book with the highest density of data per page, and explanations you can find no where else including the DDK documentation. This book does assumes some knowledge of kernel programming. Title: "Programming the Microsoft Windows Driver Model" Author: Walter Oney Publisher: Microsoft Press ISBN: 0-7356-0588-2 This is definitely the best book on WDM driver programming out there.
