Book Reviews of Murach's ASP.NET 3.5 Web Programming with VB 2008

Book Review: A great learning resource.
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm a former Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE) and Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT). I've now retired from the traveling consultant and trainer role to settle down with a single company. I'm still immersed in Microsoft technologies and I find the Murach series of books to be great learning tools especially for those techies new to a particular technology like ASP.NET and VB 2008.

Murach's ASP.NET 3.5 web programming with VB 2008 will teach you the important skills you need (and then some) for creating professional IIS / ASP.NET-based websites. Although I am very experienced on the technologies in question already, I'm always interested in reading new books that appear to be able to teach me something new. After reading/researching other books from WROX, APRESS (both of which I like) I decided to add Murach to my list of publishers for great learning resources on Microsoft technologies.

I'm looking forward to Murach's SQL 2008 book due out shortly.

No one book will be able to make someone a master on a product. Some of the most valuable learning you'll do is on the job writing applications and websites. However, well written and content-rich books such as this one are important for getting started.

Enjoy!

Summary of Murach's ASP.NET 3.5 Web Programming with VB 2008

"This book is by far the best computer programming book I have ever bought. You can go into my upstairs closet and find 20-30 books that I have purchased since the days of VB6.... All together, they could not add up to as much information as you have given me in the first 11 chapters of this book." (A developer's comment on the previous edition of Murach's ASP.NET)

Already know how to code Visual Basic 2008 desktop applications? Then, you're ready to master web programming with the 3.5 edition of this best-selling ASP.NET book from Murach Books.

It covers the 3.5 features that provide new functionality...like the ListView and DataPager data controls, LINQ data sources, new CSS-related tools, and ASP.NET AJAX...while it teaches you how to develop web applications from scratch. And it does that using all the same features that have made earlier editions such favorites among professional developers:

#1. It's concise, practical, and crystal-clear in telling you what you need to know

#2. It shows you how to get the most from Visual Studio 2008 as you code, test, debug, and deploy ASP.NET web applications

#3. It gives you a 7-chapter section on database programming...2 more chapters than in the previous edition because .NET continues to deliver new, powerful tools for this critical component of business applications

#4. It gives you solid training in the essential skills that you'll use every day, including data validation...state management...improving the user experience with easy site navigation and a standard look and feel...boosting user response time with ASP.NET AJAX...handling security...developing reusable controls...working with database data using SQL, object, and LINQ data sources...and more

#5. It gives you real-world application examples that guide you in applying what you're learning as you develop your own websites (you can download the applications for free from the Murach website)

#6. Its paired pages presentation makes for fast reading, instant reinforcement, and time-saving reference (to see how the paired pages work, you can download free chapters from the Murach website)

So if you need to learn ASP.NET 3.5 web programming, we hope you'll try this book first. We're convinced that it will deliver the training you need better and faster than any competing book.
