Ideally they would cover things like:
- history of devices
- current and future uses
- how serial devices work
- protocols
- and, of course, how to program, preferably in C/C++

This Wikipedia article covers a lot of it, and has links to other information, including

and
Serial Port Communication in VB.NET Programming
In addition to that, Wikibooks has a free book on Serial Programming
