Rating:  - The best book for C#
O livro é incrível, o melhor livro de computação que já comprei. Melhor que a série Deitel.
Amazing book!
Rating:  - Make sure you don't by the 11/07 edition
There are over 43 pages of corrections (errata) to the first edition (11/07) of this text. It is inexcusable. You can go to O'Reilly's site and print the errata lists, three of them, to use as cliff notes to decode this book. I have purchased three other titles in the Head First series that are excellent. The quality of this one is horrible. Not only do some of the programming examples have minor syntax mistakes, but entire sections of code are incorrect. In one case the errata recommends downloading a pdf because the text has been substantially revised "to enhance clarity and quality of learning".
If you want to purchase this book, make sure you get the latest edition.

Rating: - Outstanding and Innovative
This book also represents an innovative way to learn and not only C# knowledge itself. Have you ever tried to learn something and end up being frustrated with the way it is being taught? This book not only explains C# but it also explains how to learn quickly and how to obtain your edge on learning itself!
Rating: - Sloppy and Confusing
There's a reason why there is no "Search Inside" feature for this book...in my opinion. This thing is a train-wreck. This book is like the Robin Williams of technical books...It jumps around all over the place, it's not funny and you can't wait to slam it against something. There's pictures of dogs, cats, cups and couches. It's way too busy...If you grab one end of the book and you flip through the pages as fast as you, I think you can actually give yourself a seizure...in my opinion...
Rating: - Great Book
This book is great, if you're looking for a book to learn C# this is it. I wish all books had pictures. (sigh)
