Enhance your toolkit and learn something new!

This book makes good on it's promise to present a compelling collection of components for us to use in development. It does so in a very logical way, explaining what each portion of the component does and how it works. The solutions presented are practical, well thought out, and generic enough to CUSTOMIZE to your need. The beauty of this book is it gives you many new tools to use in enterprise windows/web application development while at the same time leaving an extensible open architecture. Anyone who criticizes a book because it doesn't offer 100% turn-key code reuse should be slapped. All others should BUY THIS BOOK!!

Save time

When I first got this book I thought it was a pretty innovative idea for a book and skimmed through it but didn't put it to much use initially.A couple of projects later, I've used around ten components from the book with a couple more slated for the next project I'll be doing. In dollars, that's huge.All of my projects were done in C#, so I can't comment on the whether or not the source is 100%, however everything is explained well enough that even the most junior developer will be able to work around any problem, should any arise.All in all I would recommend this book to anyone.(Note to Wrox, let's get some equivalent C# books out!)
