ASP.NET 2.0 MVP Hacks Review by edla
Little value to this book, surprising for a Wrox title
Wrox titles are usually well written and have a unique everday developer-centric perspective. This title does not live up to that standard.
First of all, they should stop printing books for beta and pre-release versions of products. Much of this book refers to features that have changed since ASP.NET 2.0 went gold.
Second, one section that I had a particular interest in, URL Rewriting, basically gave a three page review of what it is, and referred the user to go to blog to download code and read more about it. This is not what I would expect as a "MVP Hack"
Third, there were very few useful hacks in here. The O'Reilly Cookbook series is SO MUCH better than this. I don't know if there is an O'Reilly ASP.NET 2.0 book, but the authors of this Wrox title should read it and rewrite this book.
