Rating: - Excellent C#,.NET book
If you are a beginner in C#, who has programmed a little bit and wants to master the concepts in C# and the .NET framework, buy this book right away.
It is extremely well written in a language that should be very easy to follow.
If you have previously programmed in any other language like C++, Java etc., and wish to learn C# you would not go wrong with this.

This is the third book I've purchased in order to learn ASP.NET and it is by far the best.

Writing style is of the highest quality: rich, correct, to the point, but ... Read More
