Summary: Excellent for Learning and Reference
Comment: I have never coded in C, C++, or Java but come from a very solid VB background. I was looking forward to learning object oriented programming but was quite a bit nevouse. This book led me by the hand vey well. It covered the c# language in depth and I still keep it as a reference 6 mos later. It also built a foundation for the .net framework, asp.net, winforms, and ado.net. I completed the picture of winforms and ado.net using the visual studio documentation and purchased the asp.net book by the same author.
I recommend this strongly to anyone starting out on the platform. Everyone at our office agrees with this review. We cannot keep track of our 3 copies. It would be nice to have a reference copy on CD or the web.

Summary: Great book for learning C#
Comment: This is a great book for learning C#. The first part is an excellent tutorial in the language, just right for experienced C, C++ and Java programmers and for advanced VB6 programmers.
The second part introduces how to use the language to create .net programs. This is a bit superficial, but his goal was only to provide an introduction, and it is a very good introduction. For more detail on really building advanced applications you will need an additional book (like his book on ASP.NET).
The third part of Programming C# goes into advanced topics you won't easily find elsewhere, with excellent coverage of (for example) threading, remoting, reflection, streams and so forth.
Liberty writes well, his examples are terrific, and he makes complex material easily understandable. Further, he supports his book on his web site where he provides not only source code but a discussion center where you can ask questions.
I highly recommend this excellent tutorial.

Summary: Excellent, Examples are First Rate
Comment: This book is not only thorough and well written, it includes example programs that illustrate the points discussed and that provide a basis for working with the language.
Liberty starts off with a complete coverage of the language, teaching you all you need to know to program well in C#. If you have any programming experience at all, this book is a fantastic primer.
The second section of the book explains how to write Windows and web applications and how to work with ADO and how to write web services. This is an amazing tutorial on the fundamentals of .NET
The third section is the gold standard on advanced .NET topics. Jesse teaches you how to work with threading, how to use attributes, how to accomplish remoting and much more.
The book is well written, very well put together and he supports the book on his web site where you can download all of the source code. Most impressive of all, he also has a support discussion center, where you can get your questions answered.
I recommend this book without reservation.
