Not a book for begginers
At the time I bought this book, it was the only one available in my local bookstore. I had a project that required me to write a VxD in less than a month, and having never written a VxD, I hoped that this book would gain me quick and dirty insight into the basics of writting one. I found it extremely difficult to follow with not enough explanations of the basics. It seemed to be written for the x86 expert who had already written numerous other types of drivers. I was forced to reread it numerous times while researching other sources of information so that I could understand. There is too much appendix, and not enough examples. It is also chalked full of little annoying typos. The project presented by the author should have been more verbose in the explanantions - I sure would have appreciated it at the time.
