Book Reviews of Pro C# 2008 and the .NET 3.5 Platform, Fourth Edition (Windows.Net)
Book Review: Great Technical Book
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a really excellent technical book that you can actually enjoy reading from cover to cover. It assumes a reasonable level of competance, but actually goes through learning C# and .NET in a way that would be an excellent beginners method too (especially if you went through every example, to which source code is available online). The author even manages to get in the odd bit of dry humour too which never goes amiss in a thick technical book such as this!
The book regularly points you at a number of web resources which the author has built up over the years which give excellent additional information about topics which are outside the scope of the book. Overall, I'd say this is one of the best technical books I have ever read.
Book Review: It doesnt get much better than this
Summary: 5 Stars
I have read a couple of the previous versions and for me Andrew is the best technical author bar none. This isnt a light book to carry around but its worth it if you have to. You might think "how can this be a good book as it covers everything" but Andrew covers every subject with enough detail so that by the end of each section you know the concept, understand what is required for that concept, and have sufficient code examples to work with and even take further.
