Rating:  - I'd give it a TEN but they won't let me!
This is the best book I've ever read in this industry. If you are doing .NET, want to learn from where Microsoft leaves off, and have more than a couple of years experience just buy it.
Rating:  - Great information.....
Juval knows his stuff! The book could have been even better if more concrete examples of code usage had been given (saves the reader alot of time from having to write experimental code) and more details of component-oriented programming were provided.
Other than that, this is a great book.

I just want to make one point. I bought and read about 40+ books over the last couple of years on .NET, and I am a proffesional programmer working on .NET every day. I will rank this book as the number 1 book among all those 40+ books I have. 6 stars!!!
Rating: - Take the next step
This book is about half the size of many of my other .NET programming books, and yet I've used about twice as many concepts from it than the bigger books. Computer books are just bloated today because publishers know we knowledge hungry programmers are drawn to the supersized books. Well, this book breaks the mold. It is clear, concise, potent and modestly sized. For example, chapter 11 on context and interception and the logging component example is awesome. If you want to take the next step as a .NET programmer, read this book.
Rating:  - Programming .NET Components
This book has good coverage of a lot of details you'll need to be aware of to properly program .NET components. Unfortunately, it does not give any indication of how to properly integrated your components into the VS framework. As a result, it cannot be considered a complete reference, though it is valuable for other reasons.
