Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Premier's Fast & Easy Web Development Series.

Borrowing the Premier Press fast & easy teaching method, this series takes a visual approach to Web development topics, filling each page with actual screen shots and step-by-step instructions. This user-friendly format combined with the low price, results in a series every level of readers will appreciate.

Premise:
A spin off of the Fast & Easy series, yet modified slightly to accommodate teaching programming topics.

Typical Topics:
Flash, Fireworks, CGI, Java, Director, ASP, and Dreamweaver UltraDev.

Level:
Topics are more sophisticated than the original Fast & Easy, yet the same visual teaching method is still applied.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great preparation for in-depth reference books, October 22, 2005

Libertinus (Pacific Northwest, USA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: C# Fast & Easy Web Development (Paperback)

If you can still find one of these out-of-print books at the clearance prices, grab it. I program in a lot of different languages and am moving to C# & .Net for my job. I find when I go to more advanced books which have the information I need there are lots of little items that are assumed you know that really slow me down. But most beginner books are a waste of time.

For me this book is a great aid. I'm finding it allows reading through quickly without boring you with minor programming details while still filling in the stuff that gets left out in top level books, all of which seem to assume experienced developers would already have some level of C# & .NET experience. (After going through this easy to read book, you will have the experience.)

Two Problems:
1.) For those of us who find ourselves depending on reading glasses, the code text in the graphic examples tends to be a little small. So having the code to download and review is a real plus.
2.) The book is out of print and the original publishing company's website is no longer available. So the download links are no good. But ...

As of 10/22/2005: I found a copy of the code to download from Thomson Course Technology. If interested in this book you should probably grab a copy of the download before it disappers too.

This review is from: C# Fast & Easy Web Development (Paperback)

I am a show-me person and the step-by-step instructions with illustrations were just what I needed. I was able to write a program within the hour.

2.0 out of 5 stars Code too small, May 6, 2009

Blue Eagle - See all my reviews

This review is from: C# Fast & Easy Web Development (Paperback)

I might have given this book a higher rating as it does not seem like a bad book, but the fact that I have to use a magnifying lens to see the code is a bit ridiculous. Taking screen shots and using them as the code for a book is really a poor way to write a book. Hopefully this author does not do this on any newer books.
