C# Web Development for ASP.NET Review by R. Walling

Decent book, geared towards beginners who don't want to get too technical

The Good: I like the format of this book; lots of pictures and lots of very short sections to work through.

The Bad: The problem I noticed is that it doesn't present a very technical look at C# like an Apress or Wrox book would do. But that's ok, I guess, since the Visual Quickstarts are made to get a beginner up and running quickly. The other part I found interesting is taht the book covered advanced subjects, such as Delegates, Events, Inheritance and Interfaces, without first taking a deep look at the UI components. For a beginner I think things would make much more sense when learned from UI down.

The book is definitely geared towards beginners, but I would have a hard time recommending it to my beginner friends due to the short amount of coverage given to building ASP.NET UIs.
