I was about 1,000 pages in when I decided to switch to Perl (C# just isn't a good language if you work in a Linux environment). This book covers a lot of content as you can see by its size (even more so once you see actually see it). The reason I give this book 3 stars is because I am not crazy about how this content is delivered. I just came from reading C++ Primer Plus (5th Edition) by Stephen Prata and the styles of these two books are very different. This is another big thing about this book, it is NOT targeted towards beginners. So if you are just starting out you will definitely want to pick something lighter so you can get a better grasp of the programming concepts. This book assumes that you have a lot of prior knowledge and not just about programming languages. I was pretty lost in the database chapters about ADO.NET because I have no studied relational databases. Learning C++ first, you also get a better appreciation for C# and what it does in the background for you. So for someone at an intermediate programming level I was able to understand everything, but it takes a lot more effort and sometimes requires re-reading a section several times. One big reason why I would take away a star or two is for the grammar, which is odd and distracts you from the content. This author loves the phrase "To be sure, " at the beginning of almost every sentence, and I am yet to understand what this means at all. Overall it just did not flow as smooth as my previous programming book. Another thing that I did NOT realize before buying it, is that there are NO practice exercises at the end of the chapters. I think doing is the best way to learn so reinforcing your knowledge at the end of a chapter is vital to retaining the information, so I did miss that part. This book WILL teach you C# and the .NET framework, and it moves at a fast pace. The content is there so if you try hard you will be able to learn. I wish I did have a chance to finish the book, as I really bought it for the GUI-based WPF lessons, but I am still able to write decent C# programs so no harm done. While I think the book could have been written better, it still does it's job and I do not regret buying it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Tech Book That Gets The Code Right *by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2013* There are plenty of good reviews for this book so I will just try to supplement the key aspects not already addressed by others.First and foremost -- the code examples in this book have a very high level of accuracy. Unlike so many other technical books, someone actually reviewed the code and validated it before publication. Perhaps this is due to the book being a follow-on edition.Secondly -- I found this book had just the right balance of concept and application. The author writes clearly and has a great instinct for when to go deep and when to gloss over a topic (my pov anyway). He gives you some history, the concepts, and then typically gives you a very practical hands-on example to try out. Now, I'll grant you that many of the examples are simple console programs but that's the point; you get to see how a particular concept works in a basic example. Applying the concept and hands-on experience to the real world in a Windows, WPF or web-based application is rather easy once you have the building blocks to work from and this book's examples give you just that.I too had a Kindle edition of the book to work with and can affirm that the code examples are pictures which can be difficult to read at times and prevents you from doing a copy/paste effort to get the code replicated in your own example. However, all the code is available for download from the publisher's web site so it is easy to get some of the longer blocks of code in copy/paste format for your own consumption.Having come from a VBA background and starting point I found this book to be the best of all the books I've read on C# instruction and the OOP world. For those with a similar background, I would also recommend reading through The Object-Oriented Thought Process by Matt Weisfeld first. These two books will complement each other well as you step into the OOP world. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best C#/.NET Reference I've Found -- Thorough, Great-Index, Good Tutorials *by W***N on Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2011* This is by far the best of six five-star rated C# books and three more on .NET & VisualStudio that I've found.It has a great index (though there are entries for mere mentions of a term in example code).I've used it to research many fine points and found it to be VERY complete. It is massive, but I've found pages of information on topics that aren't even mentioned, or receive only few words of passing attention, in the other books.It is organized into significant tutorial sections, but the text, examples, and index (Did I mention that it has a GREAT index?) make it excellent as a reference book, as well.This is a massive 700-page book. Although a new programmer would find this useful, it's sheer size would likely be intimidating and one wouldn't likely proceed sequentially through it in tutorial-fashion more than a hundred pages or so. However, for almost any topic that is new to you, turn to the appropriate section and you will find a great tutorial with lots of examples and side-notes. The examples are short and to the point -- it's not filled with pages of code listings as many books are.My background is over 45 years of professional embedded and distributed software development in almost as many languages (including 20 years with Smalltalk, C++, Java, and Python), but only three months in C#, .NET, and VisualStudio. This book has been a welcome addition to my library, and is usually right at my elbow. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/21258273-pro-c-2010-and-the-net-4-platform-experts-voice](https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/21258273-pro-c-2010-and-the-net-4-platform-experts-voice) --- *Product available on Desertcart Brazil* *Store origin: BR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
