There are a couple of documents which in describe SCSI (commands & interface)
in gross detail.  They are :

        COMMON COMMAND SET (CCS) of the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI)
        X3T9.2/85-52 Rev 4.B (Is there a new revision???)

and
        American National Standard for information systems - small
        computer system interface (SCSI)
        ANSI X3.131-1986

Both of these are ANSI documents.   I haven't found them real useful from a
software standpoint.  Much more useful has been just the manuals for the
particular SCSI device you are interested in.  They tell which SCSI commands
that device supports and usually gives an overview of SCSI.
