5.0 out of 5 stars All In One, March 17, 2002

This review is from: Special Edition Using ASP.Net (Paperback)

A Complete guide through ASP.net. This book is a good deal for the Beginner, Intermediate or the Advanced programmer looking to come over to the .net tech. The author takes you, the reader, through so much.

In the beginning the author familiarizes the reader with the method in which the material will be covered, a few ASP.net startup details and an overall float through the .Net framework answering a few common questions. Once into the core material he guides the reader through the subject matter with great detail, explaining every idea that is presented.

I would suggest this book to anyone looking to get started with or come over to ASP.net. Good Luck!

5.0 out of 5 stars A worthwhile read., April 2, 2002

This review is from: Special Edition Using ASP.Net (Paperback)

I needed to get both a function-feature overview and a working programming knowledge of .NET technology. I was looking for a book that used real-world application scenarios with sufficient step-by-step technical explanations that demonstrated how to accomplish the task. I wanted exercises that I could code and test. I wanted references to where I could find more detailed information and examples. In short, I wanted a comprehensive overview, technical reference, and self-directed learning guide. Sometimes you really do get what you wish for! This one is worth your time.
