Great book to get started

This is a great book (as to be expected from Alex Homer) for beginning to understand .Net and ASP+. It doesn't go into the .Net framework in too much detail but explains how ASP has progressed to ASP+ and ADO to ADO+. A must read for any ASP devloper who wants to move to .Net

Decent preview

Although I am a little late I'd like to add my review for those of you who are planning to purchase this book. I think it is a nice pioneering review for ASP+. (ASP.NET). A lot has been said about .NET, the only thing I'd like to add that this book was probably the first one to be published about the .NET platform even before the name was .NET. So the info in the book is still relevant but the names have changed a little bit. If you are interested in learning the .NET platform get a more recent source other wise to learn ASP.NET I believe it is a good choice. I'll give it 5 points mainly because the examples are written in c# which is a nice change. If you'd prefer VB there are still enough examples.

Great staring point

This is one great book that I found when I started working in the new Dot area. But surely this is not for beginers. You must have little bit knowledge about Microsoft web dev paradigm along with general web development to get along with it. The examples are very useful. And as usual the authors never bore you. I highly recommend this book as a great buy.

Excellent intro to a powerful new framework

For those who work with ASP I think that this book is a must. You may want to wait for the second printing as they had some troubles with the images etc (see wrox.com/beta for details).I don't know if it was the book or just the technology that impressed my but I found it difficult to put the book down. Clearly MS has a winner here and Wrox does a good job introducing it.Serious ASP developer: This is a must buy now. Casual ASP developer: wait for second edition / public availability of .NET.
