 Good Introduction to ASP.NET 3.5 October 31, 2008
Randy Lent (Salinas, CA)
This is the first book that I read on ASP.NET so perhaps my experience is limited, but I found the book well-written and very helpful. I spent a couple of weeks reading the book and working through the examples building the Planet Wrox website. Now I intend to use the book as a reference while I build my first web site at work.
In working through the book, I typed most of the code myself, but I appreciated having the source code available on the Wrox website. (Be sure to check out the Wrox site for errata as well.) I especially appreciated having the HTML source code, as my HTML and JavaScript skills were quite rusty. I was able to follow the examples, though.
I found it helpful that the code examples are in both Visual Basic and C# because at work I am switching from VB to C#. Readers who are already fluent in both languages may find the examples redundant, but there isn't a lot of code so there isn't much extra bulk.
It is appropriate that this book has "Beginning" in the title, as ASP.NET is a vast subject and no one book can cover it all. At several places in the text Mr. Spaanjaars makes recommendations for further reading, and I am already following his recommendations. I also appreciate the author's website with its articles and forum. This will not be the last ASP.NET book that I read, but it proved to be a very good first choice.

The book was exactly as described. Is in great condition and saved me a bunch of money instead of buying it through my campus bookstore. Delivery was fast. Will order from them again.
a slow read, but a great beginning book! October 22, 2008

The first couple of chapters might be boring, but the remainder of this text book is quite impressive for an ASP.net beginner like me! The author has a great way of sharing his knowledge in a very clear manner. I've read half of the book already, and i would say I learned a lot and like the other reader pointed out, you'll never dread the word "web programming" again with this book. Highly recommended for beginner/intermediate readers!
Good Book For Beginners! October 22, 2008
Brian Mains
Imar is a very smart guy and beginners have a lot to learn from him. Thankfully, he wrote this book to teach those learning ASP.NET the foundations of the framework.
I gave it to some of my co-workers to read, and they thought the book was very good. It has gotten them up to speed very quickly on ASP.NET.
Drink Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, lots of them! September 28, 2008

I give this book full set of stars because of the tremendous effort made by the author to simplify the process.
My only problem with this book is.
It is too slow as to the way it explains the subjects.
The author directs you to download the example files but then totally crawls when it comes to "using the project files."
The book in packed with information but it should have been written for the "SLOWSKIES" you know, the turtles in the Comcast commercials.
The book just crawls and crawls and crawls but overall if you have really strong coffee and patients, you might get through.
