This book shares much of its content with 'Learning C#' by the same author (often word for word) and it really is another introductory text, pitched to an only slightly more advanced audience than its counterpart. Be prepared for over-long examples, patronising "this is what programmers call a...", tedious explanations of the simplest things, with important and useful info crowded-out by stuff you already know if you've not been buried under a rock for the last 10 years.


This was meant to be a *Programming* title, Jesse.


But there is hope, in the shape of O'Reilly's 'C# in a Nutshell', which is the no-nonsense handbook some of us were hoping for and a really excellent guide to the language. Check it out first.
