"ADVANCED MSDOS PROGRAMING" by Ray Duncan from Microsoft Press is very good
if you are either writing in C or Assembly language. In section one, He 
covers many areas such as keyboard/mouse input, video display, printer and
serial ports, file management, disk directories, memory management,
interrupt handlers, device drivers, filters and compatibility. He discribes
the concepts and gives source code (C and assembler) to be used as an example.

In sections 2, 3 and 4 describes all the DOS function calls. He gives 
all inputs and outputs, and gives examples. There are also notes. These
give you an idea of what and how DOS does things as well as things to
watch out for. His second edition is current through DOS version 4.0.

All for the low, low price of $25. You can save 20% if you know a good 
discount book store such as BookStop.
