Learning C# Review by Pyanfar Chanur
A Perfect Starting Point for OO
This is one of my top tech books, and I've passed along / recommended it more than once. Keep in mind that title: "Learning". This will not carry you end-to-end through C#, nor will it be the all-encompassing reference for the C# programmer who wants to keep up to speed. Instead, the audience is the new programmer, or the procedural programmer new to OO. When I think back to my first introduction to OO (a Java 1.0 boot-camp-styled course that made my brain spin in its casing), I wish I'd had this book: it's nicely paced, it begins at the beginning, and it gets you on your feet in regards to knowing how to program in the language.
Note that this review is for this edition of the book, but newer editions have since been released. I still recommend the book, and its approach, to anyone new to OO in general or C# in particular. Get started here, then dig deeper with the Bible-sized tomes if you need.
