I'm not sure about this title but I can recommend three books which discuss
device drivers at various lengths:

    1. Writing MS-DOS Device Drivers
	
       I think the authors last name is Lai.

    2. Advanced MS-DOS

       A Microsoft Press Book.

    3. The MS-DOS Encyclopedia

       Another Microsoft Press book and at a hefty price tag ($125) but for
       anybody doing 'serious' MS-DOS development, it's worth every cent.

Hope this helps
