Customer Review: I bought both the Beginner and Pro versions of the book. As a 28 year experienced programmer with no experience in ASPX, I needed a book with tons of code examples. This series is the opposite of what (I feel) most programmers need. The authors substitute tons of verbal exposition for working code... more info

Customer Review: "More Effective C#" continues in the same style as Bill's first book, "Effective C#": short, concise articles around a specific topic you'll need to pay attention to when figuring out how to write the best C# code you possibly can.
