Customer Reviews

My favorite of the 3 c# books I recommend

I read these reviews to decide on my books, but I also spend time reading each book a bit in the book store before my purchases. As a manager of c# programmers that had little OO exprience I thought this book was excellent. The OO chapter did an excellent job explaining the concepts. The Interface chapter made this topic simple while my other books just confused me. The examples are a bit simple but they teach the concepts very well and there are more complex topics as you progress. I thought this was an excellent beginner and intermediate book, and believe me I am very particular, I spend a lot of time selecting books.

Unbelievably Good Book on C#.NET

Wow, I had no idea how good this book was before I bought it. I had read topics in other books that served to totally confuse me and this book made them very clear. Everything is built in small pieces to develop a complete understanding of the subject matter. This is my C# Bible and my be the only book I ever need on pure C#. The other thing that I personally really like is that he does not spend a lot of time on programming windows per say. I am a web developer and just needed that core C#.NET language...that this is it. (Go buy Petzold's Programming Windows with C# if you really want windows programming...you'll have so much windows it will make you sick)Anyway, I cannot give a book a higher rating then this one. IT IS AWESOME!

Simply the best

I read through this book at the local bookstore and then bought it online. I agree with the other reviewers: this book is simply the best one around.There are so many books on C# now, but a few really shine as being great. This book is one of them.I liked this book because it can be used as both a user guide to learn C# _and_ as a reference book to C# and .NET. No other book even comes close to that goal, and the authors have done a really great job.Another great thing about this book is that it can be used by beginners and advanced users, so if you don't know C# you can learn everything you need from this book. Even if you don't know programming, this book is written in a style that you can understand - all without talking down to the reader.There are also topics covered in this book not covered in any other book - such as security and other advanced topics.

I highly recommend this book

I liked this book because it is the only one I've found that covers advanced material like security in .NET. This book is also great because it can be used by both beginners and advanced programmers, and that's very rare in most books written today.I bought several books on C# including the O'Reilly and Wrox books, and decided to keep this Sybex book as it was the best of the bunch. This book is even better than the Microsoft Press books on C#!

This is by far the best book on C# I've seen

This is by far the best book on C# I've seen. I'm an intermediate programmer experienced with C++ and Java. I found the style of the book easy to follow. One of the things I really liked was that the book acts as both a guide and a reference to supplement the Microsoft Online reference material.Part 1 of the book covers the details of the C# language, such as using variables and objects, baic C# programs, and compiling and running programs.Part 2 goes into the advanced aspects of C# and .NET, like thread programming, assemblies, security, remoting, and so on.Part 3 dives into .NET programming, such as ASP.NET, ADO.NET, Windows application programming, and building web services.
