Sams Teach Yourself Visual C++.NET in 24 Hours Review by Will Maybury

Not for the beginner

The book is not designed for beginners despite being published in a series called "Teach Yourself". The authors specify the target audience as "Those who have some exposure to C++". It is misleading not to have this reflected in the book's title. Perhaps the previous reviewer gave it 5* because he had the prerequisite experience.

As a beginner I found the book to be of little use. It has been published in a series that I would assume is for the beginner and so I have given it 1*. If you have some experience in VC++ and want to transfer your skills to the .NET environment you might find this book useful?
