2.0 out of 5 stars Old Info - Not useful, February 14, 2000

By	Rob (Bel Air, MD) - See all my reviews

Forget this book if you want good working examples. In nearly every chapter the author displays MFC class code but no examples for use of the technologies he is talking about. Also, if you are trying to learn how to write a multi-threaded TCP based server, you can foreget this book. Like others have stated, this book is old. Published in 1996 it refers Windows 95 and NT 4.0 as new technologies.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very useful book, covers a lot of areas and is written well, November 25, 1998

By A Customer

Though the book is already pretty old for the fast developing area it is still veru usefull. It covers areas like RPC that are even usefull for UNIX programmers and it describes Multithreading and the TCP/IP Socket API quiet well. It is one of the books for real programmers who do want to understand what is going on and keep control over their programs.

4.0 out of 5 stars Covers much essential Win32 programming, July 18, 1999

By A Customer

Good book and easy to follow. Covers a wealth of information. I found this book much easier to follow than some of the other books on the market with similar topics. Source code included (on floppy) contained many errors, however.
