Customer Reviews

Another excellent Wrox publication

This book is an excelent resource for C# development. It is a must have. I have already purchased this book 4 times. Everytime I get a copy someone borrows it and never returns it. I totally understand why they would want to keep this book for themselves. It is well written and easy to understand. This book provides a great overview of the language. I typically find the information I was looking for when I open this book.

C# Prof. A 1300 page turner!

Great book, good examples. I don't think they missed anything in this book.

Fantastic Book For Quick Start

Our team decided to use this book as our primer to begin the daunting task of a total rewrite of our quality and regulatory metrics software using C#. We chose this particular book because of the manner in which it allows developers, well-versed in other languages, to hit the ground running with C#. The chapters are very well laid out and the content is a perfect match. Some on our team have been in the industry for nearly 20 years and made comments on how much they have enjoyed the book. Obviously we are in the "child" stages of the development cycle, but this book has enabled us to kick the design phase up a few gears. So all in all, in our opinion, this book is a must have!

C# 2.0 IS COOL! This book is great for 2.0

I have the 2nd edition of this book for .NET 1.0 and recently got this recent new edition focused on .NET 2.0. My big comment after reviewing this book is that C# 2.0 is dang cool! I love the new features and really am anxious to apply generics now into my applications. I give this book a big thumbs up in getting me up to speed in C# 2.0. It is a BIG book - 1540 pages and is heavy enough to leave dents in your legs. The authors do a good job of explaining C# from start to finish. There is also a tremendous amount of what I will label as 'tips and tricks' throughout. Here's my big reasons to get this book: * It's big and covers so much from the C# world in an `applied' manner * It covers all the core C# items and then expands out to areas that are less covered in other books - such as working with Active Directory or GDI+ * Covers working with SQL Server 2005 quite nicely * Even covers futures such as working with WCF Basically if you are a developer in the C# world of .NET - then this is something you would want next to your keyboard.
