Rating:  - Just enough information to be near ly useless
While not designed to be a reference tool, the book repeatedly offered just enough information to be nearly useless. To me the title "Fast Track" assumes its a "quick start" book for beginners. While I wouldn't expect it to teach you something as simple as an if statement, it assumes a higher level of programming knowledge than is common to newbies. If you have zero knolwedge of ASP.net don't start here.
The index in the book is less than satisfying.

Rating:  - Fast Track ASP.NET
I purchased this book and Fast Track C# together and I was not disappointed with either book.
Pros:
The Fast Track C# book is targeted to Java and C++ developers making the transition to C# and the Fast Track ASP.Net C# Edition is targeted to ASP 3.0 programmers making the transition to ASP.Net. Even though I have limited ASP 3.0 experience, the book was easy to follow and I did not feel lost. When you have multiple authors, the difference in writing styles can sometimes ... Read More
Rating: - Great!
I've partecipated to a number of Microsoft briefing on .net the past year. The evangelists i meet where doing all to make .net impossible to understand and this made me look at .net with a certain suspect. Then i got this book and.. tadah! I've seen the light. If you understand nothing on how asp.net works this is the book for you. You'll see that there is nothing magic, nothing hidden behind ,that your knowledge of asp and ado still worth (despite the propaganda) and that .net could become a improuvement ... Read More
Rating:  - Great Starter...A little light on more advanced topics
First let me say this book fully met my expectations from what I know of Wrox press and the Fast Track series. It was a big help on the little things I was hanging up on. I'm a very experienced programmer with a lot of languages under my belt, and so my biggest hurdle in learning a new technology is the "translation" of certain concepts from one platform to another. This book is good for that "I know how to do X in ASP classic...how does that fit into .NET" state of mind. It probably would help to already ... Read More
Rating: - Excellent Introduction
If you have some experience with server-side development such as ASP or Java Servlets, this book is a perfect fit. The authors did an excellent job in explaining the essence of this new technology with just enough information to give you a thorough understanding of all its core features. The samples are short and to the point and I liked the fact that it showed both how to handcode and what you gain if you use VS.NET. Unlike other introductions to ASP.NET this book is a very quick read. It feels a bit like a good ... Read More
