Summary: Reasonable book, but overpriced, there are better choices!
Review: This is a perfectly reasonably book however there are much better books. I found the treatment a bit eccentric and not as good for learning C# as Liberty's book. Liberty's book is not only better at teaching C#, it is significantly cheaper *and* covers far more material. There is no reason to buy Lippman over Liberty since with Liberty you get more material, a better teacher and spend less $.Moreover, I find it impossible to imagine somebody who doesn't know C++ learning C# from this book. In sum, while this book has some useful points, I would pass on this overpriced book. I would buy Liberty's book if you wish to learn C# and you are not a super experienced C++ or Java programmer. If you are a super experienced C++ or Java, then you should just buy Troelsen's book and skip both Liberty and Lippman.
