Reader Reviews
I don't comprehend the criticism of this book where the complaint implies the instruction within is too meager. There are twenty-four chapters, eight hundred forty-four pages and it's not fluff. It is an excellently structured "Beginner Level" book which lays a foundation over a broad expanse of C# territory. Each chapter explains principles, leads you through hands-on examples, recaps where the principles are implemented in the examples and then tests your comprehension with exercises at the end. C# is not a casual topic and this book is not a casual read. You gain great insight when you work the code examples and answer the exercises provided. Between my workday and playtime, it took me three months to complete this book, cover to cover. I am confidant with the basics, such as ADO.NET, ASP.NET or XML handling, to investigate more advanced, specialized C# books now. Finally, a change of publishers did cause the answers to the chapter review exercises to disappear from the web for a good while. But they're in the Peer-2-Peer forum at the WROX website now, listed under this book title as the topic.
