Customer Reviews

Solid Reference Text
This book provides solid coverage of core features in ASP.NET - it's definitely a reference rather than an introductory text though and can be viewed more as a collection of bite-sized articles than a contiguous piece.

Although it covers much more than just the new features in ASP.NET 3.5, it does give great straightforward and to the point coverage of these in particular so I would recommend it to anyone looking to get up to speed on these who could also use a general ASP.NET reference text."

R mason
This book covers everything and makes a great reference for any ASP.net topic you wish to know more about.Its not a training guide and some of the syntex is missing in the examples. but each topic is well explained so filling in the blanks is not a problem. if you own this book and a practical learning tutorial your have all you need.
