Professional ASP.NET

Rating:
Summary: Fair
Review: This isn't the greatest book, but it's not that bad either. There's over 1000 pages of explanations and examples. I thought in general the coverage wasn't bad. There are shortcomings in deployment, packaging and internationalization topics. Your understanding of .NET and ASP.NET will improve greatly by reading this book. Are there better books out there? By now, most likely YES. But for the time that this came out, there weren't many books covering this topic.

Summary: Rushed to Market Disappontment
Review: We have purchased WROX books such as Professional ASP 3 and have been generally happy with the quality. Hence we didn't hesitate to purchase this version. However having received it , we have found it a rushed poorly edited book based on the BETA version of .NET. Thes structure is poor, detail too low and many errors.

I'm afraid that we would have to advise not to purchase this book.
