This book is perfect for programmers who have basic knowledge in languages such as Visual Basic and COBOL programmers. This book is not only for the beginners it also aims for experienced programmers by providing a concrete, concise and simple introduction to C# with a lot of example programs. This book provides a comprehensive and broad vision to C# programming so it is ideal to be used as College textbook. The book presents the concept of object-oriented programming and talk about the important elements of object-oriented analysis.This book is clearly defined, in-depth, example-rich, provides a hands on introduction to the C# using .NET. The comprehensive banking case study gives an innovative dimension of pragmatic approach to programming in C#.

Summary: A Good Introductory Book
Review: A good introductory book - if you already have a good background in C/C++. Otherwise, you'd be struggling and may need some other really basic books to complement your reading.
Most books have erratas and this book is no exception. However, it is minimal and acceptable.

Summary: Best book for learning C#
Review: I purchased 3 books in order to learn C# and learn it fast (this book, Jesse Liberty's "Learning C#", and Klaus Nichelsen's "C# Primer Plus"). Although this book was based on the Beta, this is the best of the three books. Don't get me wrong, I highly recommend all three books for the developer who is coming from Visual Basic 6 or another language. The illustrations in this book are excellent and the author has done a great job writing this book. I did NOT find very many errors, but I have not read any books that did not have any errors. A few errors is expected. This book is one of several 5-star books that Robert Oberg has written and the editing is very good. This book was so very good that I plan to purchase other Robert Oberg books dealing advanced Visual Basic.Net and C# programming. Please note, this is very large book but the reading is easy and won't put you to sleep. The chapters have been divided up nicely. Not to long or not to short.

Summary: Great book
Review: I recently had to get up to speed on C# fast for a graduate course I was taking and I bought this book. I found this book to be a great primer for the language. Coverage of the basics of the language is very throrough; with the one exception of somewhat weak coverage of collections. Oberg's explanations and examples are simple, clear, and to the point throughout the book. By the end of the book Oberg has you coding a multi-threaded banking program, and it barely feels like work! If you are serious about learning to program in C#, get this book!!!

Summary: decent beginner's tutorial
Review: If you just want to spend the bucks to quickly get started with C# without understanding it much, this book will help. It covers a lot of ground fast, but very much on the surface. Unfortunately, examples often do not prove the point and events example was more erroneus than helpful. And this book is virtually useless later on as a reference material, because the material is not well organized and depth is missing.

Summary: Best book for learning C#
Review: The book is best one I have read about C#. Its logic very nice and explanation very clear. Reading it is an enjoyment for me. It will give you a solid foundation of object oriented programming.

Summary: Excellent, generic approach, good for VBers
Review: This book is clearly written, with no fluff. The approach is especially good for VB programmers who have some familarity with COM techniques, although this is not a requirement. Meant to be a first reading, the focus is on console applications, with only a taste of Windows forms programming (to be continued in another volume). Object-oriented programming is probably here to stay (for awhile, at least), and this book will help you to become more comfortable with this technology using C# as a vehicle.

Summary: Precise and clear explaination of the C# language.
Review: This book is very well organized. The explainations of each feature are clear, concise, and easy to understand. The book explains the theory behind each feature in an easy manner to understand, not with tons and tons of codes to skim through. It's a great beginner's book to learning C# and the .NET FrameWork...
