The book is based on a newer version of software development tool from Microsoft: Visual C#.NET 2008 environment. I understand that Microsoft has had a 2010 release after the book was published. However, the version that the book is based on is recent enough.
After over a decade of rapid development on programming tools that use different languages and follow different design philosophies, the C#.NET is one of the recent pushes from Microsoft. Other tools used in the book are also relatively recent versions, such as Microsoft Access 2007, SQL Server 2005 Express SP2 and Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 2. This could be attractive to the ones who usually want to get the newer products and up-to-date information. The wizard tools are especially powerful in this C#.NET release. The author provides a good coverage on that.

I feel that this book provided practical and easy-to-learn database programming techniques, which can help the readers to increase their learning interests in database programming in C# and reduce the their learning curves in database programming developments

hand-on database programming example projects are discussed and covered in each chapter with detailed description and illustrations. Especially, it described more details in the design tools and wizards provided by Visual Studio.NET C#, with which a professional and practical database project can be built and developed with a few lines of codes. That makes the database programming as a fun!
