Initially I was hesitated after seeing the first review for this book in Amazon. Later I had chance to read few sections from a library. Then I decided to buy it. This is the great book for any VSTO 3 programmers. This book is the right place to start. Covered almost everything about the VSTO. Great explanation with samples to demonstrate. Everything is in for VSTO developer. Now I am an expert developer in VSTO, just I started from this Book. Book can give you idea and knowledge, your personal skill is to explore and improve your level to expert. This book gives the good knowledge for VSTO. Thanks for the publishers and the editors for this good stuff.
