Windows API Documentation
Author
Are there any books that you can download that have the documentation on the windows API functions / arguments, like the one that you get if you buy visual studio?
Not that I'm aware of, but you can just use the MSDN Library. It has all the same information and more.
Try looking through MSDN Online Library.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library
Then select Win32 and COM Development, and then try System Services. There are many subsections there, and you should be able to find everything you need to know regarding Windows API functions.

And if you're clever, you search specific terms via Google since MSDN links are usually topmost (or very close to) and Google is faster than MSDN.
For instance the topmost link to the search CreateWindow will give you the MSDN equivalent link:
http://www.google.com/search?biw=1266&hl=en&q=createwindow&btnG=Google+Search

Or you can just put in a search term and append site:msdn.microsoft.com in google. That will return everything found at msdn.
E.g: (WM_TIMER Message site:msdn.microsoft.com)
