Summary: a top win32 programming book, and enjoyable to read as well
Comment: I disagree with the negative reviews found here. From someone having dozens of both MFC and non-MFC Windows programming books, Richer's book ranks easily among the top 5. It is a joy to find such clearly written technical book covering some of the most difficult areas of Win32 programming. Anybody doing complex, multithreaded Windows programming -- Even MFC programmers -- would do well to read this book from cover to cover. If nothing else to gain a solid understanding of how things work under the hood. Based on this book, I will confidently buy any other book written by this author.

Summary: Absolutly Great !
Comment: The firt thing you should know is that this book is not for Advanced users of windows. It's for Advanced PROGRAMERS in windows. which isn't clear from the books name. I normaly don't like books except when they are exceptionally usefull. So many authors write so much and give you a little. you see books that are 1200 pages. but you can put the usefull consise information in 400 pages.
This book is RREEAALLY difirent. It's 1000 pages are realy a 1000. Jeff doesn't talk alot. gives you precise consice understandable detaild info. So much info. What's outside and inside. So many things that are not explained in the MSDN. (speacialy when he talks about the kernel objects)
This book is not a complete guide to win32. BUT it's very complete in the topics it describes. To me, now I can say I'm an advanced win32 programer.
The only misleading thing in the book is it's NAME. I think it should have been cald "Advanced Windows for programers"

Summary: Doing serious Win32 Development? YES. Then get this book.
Comment: Anyone doing serious Windows development using the base Win32 API's must have this book. It covers intermediate and advanced usage of the file system, DLL's, memory architecture, memory management, thread synchronization, memory mapped files, and a host of other more advanced topics. The coverage of the various subjects is complete and the code examples well written. Really anyone doing development under the Win32 API will benefit greatly from this book. Get it. I hope this helps J.
