2809.4Book review ...KERNEL::MEGARITYI remember when Rock was youngThu Apr 03 1997 10:2016
Just thought I'd share this with you all ...

The current edition of "The NT Insider" did a review of this book and this is
was what it said in the final paragraph of the review :-

	What could have been an important and useful work has resulted
	in yet more FUD and obfuscation in the field of NT kernel mode
	device drivers.  As a result, the "NT Insider" rates this book
	as "not recommended".  Guess we'll all have to wait for the
	book by Fraser, Goldenberg and Hanrahan.

    Re .4, it does contain nuggets of good information and insights.  I'd
    not dismiss it entirely.  The book by F,G&H has been slow in coming. 
    Another book is currently in the work focusing on WDM by MS Press may
    overtake the F,G&H book and renders it obsolete.
