Now there's no excuse for not learning .NET

Having concentrated on Java for several years, I procrastinated switching gears in order to come up to speed on .NET. It turns out to be simpler than I thought, at least when you have this book.The author calls out every major feature and system of Java, comparing and contrasting its analogue on the .NET platform. His explanations are concise and the examples are very clear--so clear, in fact, I found he even answered lingering Java questions for me. Paul Gibbons leverages the many patterns familiar to all Java programmers, making .NET very approachable (and much more concrete).This book seems to spring from the author's own practical experience, which makes it that much more valuable to a "working programmer." I highly recommend this book for anyone faced with learning .NET, but especially those who know Java. Their experience, combined with this book, will make the process a breeze.
