C# Essentials (2nd Edition) Review by Joseph C. Rattz, Jr.
The best first C# book I know of.
I have been writing in C# for over 4 years now. This was my first C# book, and the one I have used the most. Though I have several other, substantially longer C# books, this is the one I go to first. It's odd. When I can't find something I need to know in this book, I often can't find it in the larger books either. Despite the others having significantly more pages, they don't seem to provide me that much more information. One review I read mentioned the book is concise, and that is its greatest asset to me.
However, if you do not know how to program, then this book is not for you. If you are not comfortable writing code in either C, C++, or Java, this is not the book for you. If you know C, but lack OO knowledge, this probably isn't the book for you. Other than that, I highly recommend this book.
