Rating: - written is terrible!
You need to spend a lot of time to read one page to figure out what exactly the author try to explain.
Rating: - Excellent book to Start with
Since I have some experience with VB .net
I thought at the begging, that when I want to move to c#,
I'll buy a small volume book and go thru the language.
Appeared that was the hard way for me, those instance/accelerated books
Are as their name suggested and it wasn't helpful for me.
After that I decided to buy this book and to invest time in reading it.
And to tell the truth -it filled my expectations.
The book is good not too complicated , ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent Overview and Reference
This book is an excellent introduction to many great topics. I use this book as my C# bible and supplement it with other books when I need more detailed information about a subject.
Rating: - The Complete Book !
I seriously don't agree with the previous reviewer's. The title says it all, it is for "Professional". Not for a kid, who finds out grammatical errors in a book. If you are a Pro developer, you will get the point across and do your work what you need to do. Not crib about the minor faults. This book is a serious book for serious people. The Complete book, I would say. I use it on a daily basis and is a GREAT reference for my work !! Kudos Authors !! Great work done !
Rating: - Poor quality
Contents : poorly written; Style different in each chapter. Examples : Don't work and download examples do not work. I have contacted authors and they dont care. Do NOT purchase this book.
