This books cut-to-the-chase approach gets you up to speed on the new ASP.NET MVC without getting bogging you down in learning or re-learning ASP.NET itself. Youll receive straightforward instruction on concepts, backed by real-world case studies and examples that offer practical solutions.

Beginning

ASP.NET MVC 1.0

If you have a background in .NET and ASP.NET and are seeking to learn ASP.NET MVC, then this is the book for you. Relying heavily on MVC concepts, ASP.NET MVC principles, and code to demonstrate the main content, this valuable resource walks you through the necessary components to solve real-world problems.

A clear and straightforward writing style offers a pragmatic approach so that you can learn the material at your own pace. You'll review all aspects of ASP.NET MVC, and all the topics are explored for the final version of Microsoft ASP.NET MVC 1.0. Two real-world case studies showcase the theoretical concepts that the authors discuss throughout the book, and all sample code uses the most up-to-date Microsoft technologies to familiarize you with current development approaches. By the end of the book, you'll have a firm grasp of ASP.NET principles and how to apply them to maximize the potential of this exciting new framework.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great intro...better than the Pro book, October 15, 2009

By	A. DiMauro (Manchester, NJ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This book is not watered down...it contains plenty of code and a good overview of how to effectively use ASP.NET MVC. There were some topics I was having trouble with, and now they make much more sense after reading this book. It stuck a little bit too much to Ninject, and it would have been nice to see a little more overview of the alternatives, but it definitely filled in some of the gaps from other books. I would not recommend it as your only source, but this, coupled with another one or two more advanced books have really filled in the MVC puzzle for me.

My main gripe is that this book didn't come out BEFORE the pro book! I think I would have understood it much better if I had read this book first. But, I understand that early adopters tend to be more 'pros' than 'beginners', which is why the pro books, in general, seem to come out first.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easiest way to learn MVC, September 26, 2009

By	De Sanctis Marco - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

What I really liked on reading this book was the "I show you the actual code and then explain how it works" approach. It's very practical: you won't find a lot of theoretical concepts (although they're definitely part of the book) as any concept is explained by examples which you can eventually reproduce on your own computer. The book covers a wide range of aspects about developing web apps with ASP.NET MVC, starting from the basics of the project's anatomy, going through AJAX and Unit testing, and ending with customizing the framework to your needs. If you are a web forms developer, you never touched MVC and you want to be ready for it in a couple of weeks, well... this book is for you.
Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Came highly recommended, October 23, 2009

By	Dave Dustin (Auckland, New Zealand) - See all my reviews

Although I haven't read it cover to cover yet, I purchased this because the rest of the dev team are all making use of MVC, and given that my dev role is secondary (Primarly a DBA), I don't get to play in the big projects.

But flipping through the book, I can easily tell that this is going to fill in a lot of the gaps and answer the questions I've been having while trying to get up to speed.
