Marvelous High Level Discourse On Windows DNA Architecture

We are planning a major B2B enterprise and, when we bought this book, we were looking for expert guidance on use of Windows technology for distributed, network applications (DNA). The book met our needs extremely well.This book is intended for senior programmers and systems architects. It requires significant prior programming experience and a willingness to deal with a high levels of abstraction. (You will sometime think that you are reading a college textbook.) The book uses a real-life development project as a theme and always returns to more practical matters after explaining the theoretical underpinnings.This is not a tutorial for installing Microsoft tools. There are lots of Sequence Diagrams and other architectural diagrams but few screen shots. If you study this book and understand it well, you are the type, like the author, who is invited to speak at seminars. I have not yet achieved that level of understanding, but the light already has gone on for me in several key areas.

Excellent and complete

From design to debugging and everything in between. This is an excellent and practical resource, especially for the corporate and departmental developers. Provides lots of insight and tips on how to design and build custom DNA apps.
