Summary: This book is [not good]
Comment: After reading through the first 20 chapters, in which no programming occurred until Session 16, I finally gave up. When I hit the first source code error in a simple form validation program I chalked it up to a simple typo. In Session 20 I couldn't get their program to work at all, to say nothing of the source code not even appearing on the CD-ROM!
Whatever you do, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS BOOK!!!... As has been said before, if I could give it zero stars I would.

Summary: Horribly Written ¿ Not Worth the Purchase
Comment: This book is already miserably, and painfully, out of date upon purchase. Be prepared to read half of the book before the author addresses the topic of "Building Your First ASP.NET Page". At that point, I had so many questions while reading the first 145 pages that I was completely confused. All of this could have been avoided with simple examples at the very beginning of the book.
Furthermore, typos are in abundance, the grammar was unclear, look for repetitive source code, missing code or completely wrong code through out the entire book. For instance, the listings on the CD were also incorrect or missing (Session 20 did not have a complete listing, instead referring the student to the CD where Session 20 was non-existent).
Don't waste your money on this poorly written book, instead go to the ASP.net website and use their free tutorials to learn about ASP .NET.

Summary: Quick learning, yet too many code errors
Comment: This book starts out right, because it did keep me captivated for a few chapters, until you start to write the code. The code is all wrong, it doesn't compile due to errors. Another drawback is that the book is full of the same code, repeated again and again.
The only good use of this book is learning the basics in pseudo code, without actually writing real ASP.NET code.
