Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of Mastering Visual C# .NET

Book Review: Simply the best
Summary: 5 Stars

There are so many books on C# now, but a few really shine as being great. This book is one of them.

I liked this book because it can be used as both a user guide to learn C# _and_ as a reference book to C# and .NET. No other book even comes close to that goal, and the authors have done a really great job.

Another great thing about this book is that it can be used by beginners and advanced users, so if you don't know C# you can learn everything you need from this book. Even if you don't know programming, this book is written in a style that you can understand - all without talking down to the reader.

There are also topics covered in this book not covered in any other book - such as security and other advanced topics.
