Subject: Looking for a book on CP/M interfacing

I'd like to write an application program or two and am looking for a book that 
will provide concise and complete information on using CP/M system services 
(BIOS calls).  My MicroPro StarCard came with "The CP/M Primer," by Murtha and
Waite, but there's very little *really* useful info there.  For $2.00 I bought
a remaindered book called "A Practical Guide to CP/M" which isn't all that 
useful, either.  What I need is specific information on what the register
contents should be on entry and exit, where the byte count is returned on a
console read, what anomalous results can occur, etc. 

Thanks in advance,
