ASP.NET Bible Review by Welfare Status

Don't buy this book!

I bought this book in a UK bookstore. I wish I hadn't! I wanted a book that would cover C# and ASP.net. I went for this one because it covered C# as well as VB, and because there appeared to be a lot of content. Unfortunately when I got it home I found I'd wasted my money.

1. The ASP.net web site development stuff is over by about page 300. The rest is devoted to web services.
2. This book covers far too much stuff in too little detail
3. Despite the high page count, there is very little actual content. Big print, lots of repetitive code examples, make for poor reading.
4. It's poor for C# as most of the examples are in VB. Apart from the after-thought appendix at the back, there's nothing useful for someone wanting to learn C#.

Do not buy this book!!!!
