Excellent book.

I am pasting this review that i had originally posted in 2001 at other websites. This is one of the best books i have read. I have several years of experience in C/C++ and some experience in windows programming however I am a 'absolute beginner' with Windows device drivers and kernel mode programming and i was able to grasp almost everything the book spoke about with relative ease and with NO confusions. I would recommend this book to anyone who has absolutely no background in device driver programming but wants to make a career doing just that. I must admit that the books assumes that you are versed with C/C++ and some understanding of programming paradigm for windows, but it is pretty obvious since this is NOT a book to teach a programming language nor it is aimed at teaching regular windows programming. It is a complete 'NO NONSENSE' book that deals with topics right upto the point. The contents of the book flow gracefully explaining each and every step with precise detail. The author seems to have made the best possible effort to explain the basics before jumping directly into details. And that does help an absolute beginner. This book does NOT cover details about device specific drivers but it does help you reach a point where you are confident that 'you will understand' whatever you research on your own. A very good book... have seen very few of these types lately.

Must buy if you are writing Windows 2000 Device Drivers

I just finished this book. Great book. I almost did not buy the book based on the review by Tomer Cohen. He stated that the book was outdated. Actually, it is completely updated for Windows 2000. I took the advice of a coworker and bought it - I'm glad I did. The book has great examples and was easy for me to follow. I definitely give it a 5+.

Excelent book

Excellent job revising the NT Device Driver book for Windows 2000. My group used the previous version, which had numerous errors and slow reading. I have also read all other books on this subject matter. It is obvious Mr. Lozano understands his audience. The book demonstrates expertise on the author's part. I especially enjoyed building an actual driver as I read through the book. Great presentation!I look forward to more of Mr. Lozano's books.

The best Entry-level Windows 2000/NT Device Driver Book

I have read all, but one of the Windows 2000/NT device driver books and found this one to be the best for beginners, by far. It is very well organized in a top-down approach. I though the concepts were well presented and easy to understand. After readin two other books on NT device drivers, this one finally explained things clearly for me. The book is also very hands-on. It describes an example device drive in full source and develops it through each chapter. You can actually build the driver as you go and the driver is developed as you would develop your own driver. I do want to make it clear that this book is not a definitive refence. It does conatin errors, but the approach for teaching Windows driver development is its strength. You'll want to get OSR's and Wlater Oney's Windows driver development books to get a good foundation. This book is also not wordy and quick-reading. I would suggest is, if you are trying to grasp NT device drivers.

A must have for Windows NT device driver writers

Excellent reference material for anyone who is writing a Windows NT device driver. The section on debugging information was extremely helpful. I found it easier to setup a kernel mode debugging session with this book then reading through the Microsoft Developer's Network documentation
