Obsolete already,
By "jwyse2" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: C# Black Book (Paperback)
While the author seems to cover the topics well, including good useable code examples, much of the information is already obsolete. He obviously wrote this while the C# language was still in Beta 1, because many of the classes and methods he uses were removed, replaced, or renamed as of Beta 2. I can't believe they published a book written about a language before the language was officially finalized and released. It's very difficult to search the Internet, MSDN, etc. for all of the "equivalent" classes for the outdated ones the author uses... I recommend you find a newer and more accurate book.

Best book on C# so far for Windows Forms programming,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: C# Black Book (Paperback)
This is the best book I've purchased yet that covers Windows Forms programming with C#. After the usual chapters that introduce you to the C# language, OO Programming, CLR and Microsoft .Net in general you'll find that the remainder of the book (About 40-45%) provides solutions and great code examples on programming Windows Forms Applications.
2.0 out of 5 stars
Explanations are far too difficult to comprehend.....,
By Mark Buynoski (New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: C# Black Book: Comprehensive Problem Solver (Black Book (Paraglyph Press)) (Paperback)
An earlier reviewer said he had trouble with delegates. I agree, he explains complicated things on a high level, then the simpler things that should already be known by programmers, he grinds into you. I went to a web-site and learned what I needed to about Delegates in one paragraph. Matt forgets to tell us (no pun intended) what delegates are... This is a decent reference, but as for learning the language, I would look to something else.
