Rating:  - Zeroxed Book?
I didn't like this book. It does not go into the individual concepts enough. I found it to be really unhelpful. And sorry, but my desk already has a paperweight. And I have issues about spending any amount of money for what amounts to a bound version of copied paper. The entire book was a very poor zerox copy.
Rating:  - Did they photocopy this book?
I just opened up the OOP section and noticed that the diagrams that are in the book appear to be photocopied. One diagram shows an inheritance relationship between some banking objects. There are nine objects in the diagram and you CAN NOT see the lines bordering each object, nor the lines between the objects.

Rating:  - Waaaaay too basic
OK. I am an experienced C/C++ programmer, so you have to keep in mind that this review will be based on my background. The book is OK. That's why I gave it a 3, but it's nothing more.

Rating: - A Good Introductory Book
A good introductory book - if you already have a good background in C/C++. Otherwise, you'd be struggling and may need some other really basic books to complement your reading.
Most books have erratas and this book is no exception. However, it is minimal and acceptable.
Rating:  - Well worth it!
Very well written book that will help anyone at any level learn C#. I've read many books on C# and this one is the best - hands down.
