The series format is a step by step tutorial intended for the Intermediate to Advanced programmer looking to be challenged in a new area. Each book in the series meets the 2 aims of a developer when learning a new technology, firstly to learn the techniques and tools, but secondly how to accomplish their goals with that particular technology. Many other books aimed at this market fall short of the Intermediate to Advanced label. Although containing advanced material, many have long elaborate introductions, which are at the expense of more technical information later in the book. The Professional Projects series contains only a brief introduction, and quickly moves the reader onto more challenging material. Sections Overview Section Lays the groundwork for understanding the particular development issues surrounding the uses for the application. Projects Section Presented projects are increasingly more complex in an attempt to guide the reader through practical development scenarios and to represent real world examples. Beyond the lab Serves as a summary for what the reader has just learned and roadmap for readers to search for further information. It also resents a skills path and suggests related technologies that need to be studied. Reference Appendix Acts as a quick reference and covers the main commands that a developer will need to use. An invaluable tool to a new developer.

Professional?????,
By thla (greece) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Microsoft Visual Basic .NET Professional Projects (Paperback)
Be sure that there is nothing professional about this book. It is certainly one of the worst out there. The applications you build in the book are based on code of the lowest quality. Nothing object oriented here. It has nothing to offer to the intermediate user and above and will introduce the beginner to some very bad programming habbits.Don't be fooled that it 'll let you build a full video kiosk application. The intermediate could do with no effort and the beginner won't understand what and why, simply because it just throws totally basic code and explains nothing. Not even the SQL. Then half of the content is of (the much ridiculus) style: "Now that we learned this, let's go and learn this"(end of section), next section: "in the previous section we learnd this, now let's go and learn this", or,"figure X shows ..." (figure) "as shown in figure X...". Irritating the least. I just adopts a "tell it to a ten years old" manner but actually says nothing usefull. Bottom line: just don't buy.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Overall basic .NET text covered & lack professionalism,
By A Customer
This review is from: Microsoft Visual Basic .NET Professional Projects (Paperback)
This book does a fair job of covering most aspects of VB.NET in a simple and easy to understand text. Book does lack professional coding examples, Object-oriented chapter is about 18 pages while chapter on .NET family servers is over 20 pages, there is no CD in the book. Overall this book is for newbees. I personally like the Visual Basic .NET from Francesco Balena.
