Customer Review: This book has what is very hard to find with such new material as WPF... good working examples. I truely believe the the chapter on user and owner controls more than pays for the book, although the book offers much more.

Customer Review: I was looking for a good summary of threading for a current project and this book provided the code I needed. It is one of the best books I have seen that explains the examples and concepts in well-tested fashion.

Customer Review: This is a good book, but not a great book. I own several other books by the author, John Allen, on similar subjects and there is a definite bias towards a british view of the subject.

Customer Review: As an experienced Java developer who was "forced" to move into the C# and .NET world, I turned to this book to help me make that transition. I am very glad I did so.
