We present to your attention another novelty of our publishing house - the long-awaited sixth edition of the legendary book
Windows Internals , written by Mark Russinovich, David Solomon and Alex Ionescu who joined them in the new edition.

The sixth edition of the book Windows Internals covers the inner core of the components of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
This book will help you:
- Understand how the system kernel and control mechanisms work, starting from the object manager to the registry.
- Learn more about the internal data structure system using tools such as the kernel debugger.
- Examine the Windows security model from the inside to see how it permits data access.
- Understand how physical and virtual memory is managed in Windows.
- Examine the Windows network stack from the top to the bottom, including the API protocols for drivers and network adapter drivers.
- Understand file system access and boot problems.
- Learn how to analyze crashes.
There is probably no point in writing a lot about the book - Windows Internals is well known to all Windows administration and application development specialists as a basic tutorial for in-depth study of the kernel of this operating system.

Unfortunately, historically, the release of the original edition comes, as a rule, several years after the next release of Windows, and sometimes the print edition comes in sale, when a new version of the OS is already relevant. It happened this time.
Another innovation of the publication was the fact that for the first time the book was divided into two volumes, with a six-month gap in the output. Accordingly, the presented Russian edition is a translation of the
first volume of Windows Internals, the second is currently being prepared for release in our publishing house.
