Book Review:
Wow!!! This book is really badly written. I was impressed by their ASP book as an introductory crash course and it worked because ASP is easy anyway. But C# and object oriented programming seem to be beyond the authors' understanding. Everything is referred to as a box. I have 6 years of OO programming and even I found it difficult to read and understand. It is Repetitive. Based on old beta .NET. Not organized. Topics mixed all over the place. Confusing. Repetitive. Some sentences just stop halfway through. The real world objects they compare to are a joke. The same facts are mentioned over and over again in the same confusing way. Jargon is used and facts are thrown in at random but with no explanations. I wish I had read other people's comments before I bought it. Did I mention it is repetitive?
