4.0 out of 5 stars A Better Microsoft Book
This book is an improvement on most of the Microsoft Press books I have read, especially the "Step by Step" ones. The writing is terse and the explanations and examples are pretty understandable.

"Programming Microsoft Web Forms" is a mish mash of web development tools for the developer that is not a novice, but not a pro either. This book is for that middle...

3.0 out of 5 stars Great for a beginner
I bought this book because I took a skills assesment w/ Microsoft and it was their recommendation. Based on the complexity of the assessment I would have thought that it would have been much more in depth. It is very Top-Level. Good if you are just getting into ASP.NET 2.0, not a great reference if you are looking for the subtleties however.

"Programming Microsoft Web Forms" is a mish mash of web development tools for the developer that is not a novice, but not a pro either. This book is for that middle ground programmer who is looking for realistic problems to solve that can be applied to someone with a little more than beginner understanding of ASP.Net, C#, JavaScript, CSS, databases, and web development.

You can even use it as a refresher course or an update on Microsoft web tech if you're relatively new to .Net.

Personally, this book did for me exaclty what I expected it to, which was help deepen my understanding of ASP.Net and how .Net handles on the web.
