Summary: Lots of pages, too little useful content
Comment: The first thing you'll notice is that the book is mainly concentrated using vb.net. That is fine, but looking at the code as a c++, c#, java programmer just begins to drive me nuts. If you want the c# examples, you have to download them. If you like to write the code to help you learn, this book is not for you. Chapters 5 and 6 are almost wholly useless as far as examples go, but a decent read for understanding how asp.net works. The web services and mobile controls were nice. The datastore chapters were good for understanding asp.net. I would have expected to see more OO design in the professional book. If you have an asp.net book already, this won't bring many new revelations to you. If you are looking for a single asp.net book, this is a decent one to have. If you are beginning asp.net, this book is not for you, as the examples just aren't concise or clear enough.
In short the book isn't worth it if you have some asp.net books already. If you are developing with asp.net currently, this may be a decent reference. However, you might find more use using MSDN for reference. A sub par wrox book.

Summary: MCSD.NET,MCSE,MCDBA,MCSA and MCT
Comment: oh, I hope that the authors read my review. This could me the best ASP.NET book in the market but it isn't. Many pages, many chapters and many information but all these need time to manage and arrange. I think that the former publishing company just wanted to publish 1000+ book. Please in the future try to make in better. Something like Professional ASP.NET using C# and Professional ASP.NET using VB.NET. And please authors not more than 1000 in the same book.
Alghough I like many of the former wrox's titles.

Summary: You'd think it would be more help
Comment: I got this when it was basically the only book out there. Since then, whenever I have an ASP.NET problem I open this book, search vainly through the 1300 pages for coherent help, then give up and go to google groups. With all that writing you'd think that I would occasionally find my answers in there...
