Title: Gets to the low level mechanics of coding
Review: This book is based on the old DOS before there was Windows. Using Turbo-Pascal, the author leads you through writing routines that do many of the things that are now present in Windows. There are many separate utilities, each complete and self contained and a separate project. The book goes beneath DOS to peeking and poking into portions of the operating system - but makes it easy to comprehend. It won the Society for Technical Communication's second highest award internationally in 1989 - a clear indication of it's easy to understand style.
