Rating: - Great book for beginners or imtermediate users
I was previously a VB6 programmer with some OOP knowledge. This is a wonderful book for those who are looking for making the transition from VB6 or Visual C++. Liberty makes it very easy to understand, and has great examples for all his code. I highly recommend this, and would definitly purchase another book of his.
Rating: - Great book to start with
Very good at giving a beginner C# programmer the basics for the language and the environment (Visual Studio 2k3).
Rating: - Best C# book available
I've been programming .NET since 2001 and have read several books on the various tools and technologies that make up the platform. The one book that I keep in close reach is Jesse's Programming C# 3rd edition. Not only was it a great cover-to-cover read, but as a reference book, it has proven to be essential. The coverage of the C# language is excellent and the CLR and framework coverage is concise. I appreciate that the book does not try to cover too much of the framework and mainly focuses on the language and essential BCL classes. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn (or learn more) about C#. I don't think this is a book for beginner programmers, but if you are coming from another language, like VB.NET ;), this is the book for you.
Rating: - Perfect C# book for the Experienced Programmer!!!
If you already have a good understanding of C++ and want to learn the C# language and some basics of the .NET framework, this is _THE_ book to get. It gets right down to the details of the C# language without endless rambling and obscure code. The examples are well suited to the topic at hand and are small and to the point. I would recommend this book to anyone who has programming experience, especially C++ developers.
Rating: - Not as good as I expected
I select this book as my formal textbook. But after reading the part1, I have to say "It is not a great work". I think the author is a professional writer, but can not be entitled guru compared with the author of "The C Programming Language" or "Core java" who can present the core very systemeticaly and cystally clear.
Anyway, this book can be use as a warm-up for learning C#.
