Rating:  - Learn to boil water!
This is a good intro book that eliminates the need for some of the first books I bought on C#. When compared to other "cookbooks", however, this book is incredibly weak (see: XSLT Cookbook, SQL Cookbook). If you have used C# for more than 6 months, you will know how to iterate over an array, to use String.IsNullOrEmpty, get the index of a value within a string, and use a generic arraylist.

Rating:  - Clear, Concise and Detailed examples
I'm an intermediate coder, familiar with programming and I have about 1.5 years programming C#. I've already used this book(C# Cookbook 2nd edition) to write C# code navigating in and around directories and files.

What I like most was that there was not one example, but many examples for the most used functionalities. This ... Read More
Rating: - Great C# Reference Book
I came across a project that had to do with XML, and I came to love this book. It has a lot of suggestions that helped me jump start my project.
I wouldn't recommend this book to learn C#- (pick up John Sharp C# step by step for that.)
Rating: - Excellent!!!!
If you are just coming into C# or have been doing it for a while - it doesn't matter - BUY THIS BOOK!!! Oreilly as we all know, makes very good tech/programming books and this one is one of the best I've had so far. This will be a book that will spend much less time on my shelf and much more time next to me on my desk.
Rating: - Good book
Being an advanced programmer I was looking for books to use as references or to further my skills. This book has proven a valuable asset.
