Summary: excellent book; the ultimate companion for VC++ developers
Comment: A professional programmer is one who knows not just how to do things, but also why. In this regard, Visual C++ Programming is an excellent choice due to its comprehensive coverage of all aspects related to Windows programming. It discusses in detail the underlying mechanism of Win API and MFC providing invaluable tips and insights for true professionals. However, it's not confined to theoretical concepts exclusively but also explains how to use the debugger, class wizard, AppWizard, resource editor - all of which are integral parts of the Visual C++ environment. New features offered by Visual C++ 6.0 such as IntelliSense, edit and continue, and auto complete are described as well.
The book is not targeted at a particular level of expertise. It can serve as an excellent guidebook for both novices and accomplished programmers, who would like to broaden their knowledge and skills in Windows-based programming with Visual C++. Mind, however, that prior knowledge in C++ is a prerequisite.
Visual C++ Programming is your ultimate companion for working with Visual C++ 6.0. It is unquestionably a five-star winner.

Summary: This is the perfect VC++ book
Comment: The most important aspect of this book is that it is very readable. You can get through it cover to cover. The simple fact is that MFC is too big a topic for one book, or one author. I've had to use three books to learn it. My method has always been the same.
1. Find a book to read just to get a high level idea of what is going on. Normally, about a quarter to half way the high level book, it becomes superficial. In this case, that book was Teach Yourself Visual C++ in 21 Days.
2. Start reading a more complete book that will tell me what is going on. Originally, I started reading the Prosise book. Don't get me wrong, Prosise is a great reference, but its too detailed. MFC is too broad to learn every nuck and cranny. I shifted over to Programming VC++. It's perfect. It goes over every thing I need to know. If I need more detail, I use Prosise for reference. But this is the book I read cover to cover.
MFC is tough. This book might not teach you everything. But it will give you enough information to know what to look up in Prosise.
