Core C# and .NET: The Complete and Comprehensive Developer's Guide to C# 2.0 and .NET 2.0 Review by E. Boyle
One of the best books for .NET and C#
Core C# and .NET, read cover to cover would almost cover the entire 70-536 exam (.NET 2.0 Frameworks Application Development Foundation). Take the title of this book to heart - it is C# AND .NET. This book is without any doubt my most valued C# or .NET book to date.
I think a better title would be "Lean the.NET Framework inside and out! ...with plenty of code examples provided in C#"
Quick Note: I was using the Microsoft Training Kit For Exam 70-536( .NET 2.0 Frameworks Application Development Foundation). I read it cover to cover. While it is essential reading if you are going to take the exam, the Training Kit is full of gaps and errors. In some cases, incorrect information that needs to be unlearned (this has become a known fact about the book in the blogosphere and forums)
...I went to a local book seller and read C# books for hours with a goal of finding the right one to fill on those gaps. "Core C# and .NET" managed to clarify "chapters" of confusion from the Training Kit in 15 minutes of reading - I slammed the book shut and got up and paid for it. Slammed it shut because I was aggravated with Microsoft - Stuff I was struggling to understand was so clear to me because of this book. Good writing, knowledge, and frankly, a good teaching style.
I have since come to love this book and I have had it for only a week.
If you want to "Learn the.NET Framework inside and out!" this is the book!
