Book Reviews of Windows via C/C++ (Pro - Developer)

Book Review: All you always wanted to know about Windows functionning
Summary: 5 Stars

Excellent choice of topics (kernel objects, processes, threads, jobs, fibers, memory management, DLL et SEH)and a good compromise between the depth of analysis and an easy reading.
The book is very attractive visually; the bold fonts are really used at right places and numerous examples (as a matter of fact quite serious in itself) are very, very readable.
A must for a serious programmer.
