OK as a quick start,
By
This review is from: The Rational Guide to Building SharePoint Web Parts (Rational Guides) (Paperback)
Overall it provides a very good quick start to writing web parts. My one gripe is that they include "Bonus Material" that can be downloaded when you register your book with them (ie: give them all your personal information) such as chapters on "Using the WPPackager Application" and "Using External Resources". Just what I want, to print out material to stick in my book. It makes sense to have the examples and sample web parts available for download but chapters of the book should be published with the book!!!
I had hoped this would be more like an O'Rielly Nutshell book which are generally short on blah blah and long on reference material. Unfortunately it gets verbose in many places and only provides reference to the most commonly used objects, methods, and properties. All the same it pulls together enough information to get you started quickly in a small enough book that you can actually use it.

Making good use of the features of Microsoft SharePoint,
By
This review is from: The Rational Guide to Building SharePoint Web Parts (Rational Guides) (Paperback)
I was tasked with getting to grips with our 100-strong company's new SharePoint information-sharing system, not as an administrator, not as a developer and not as just an end-user but as a lead contributor managing content and telling the technical architects and administrators what features we need to exploit. This book is excellent in helping me get to grips with what SharePoint offers to a company of 100 people. It avoids over-technical developer-talk but gives a clear introduction to the powerful features of document control and structures based on configurable "web-parts". It leads me through click by click in setting up and managing what I need.

Great intro to Sharepoint Webparts,
This review is from: The Rational Guide to Building SharePoint Web Parts (Rational Guides) (Paperback)
Being new to Sharepoint and webparts, I found this book to be concise and to-the-point. Guides you through basic webpart development in C# (when you register the book you can get code in VB if you desire). The book also discusses in straightforward terms debugging, deployment of webparts, code access security, targeting audiences and personalizing content. Plus it is only 175 pages, so it won't collapse your bookshelf.
