I'm a bit biased to this book. Jessie Liberty's C++ books helped me learn that language. I was pleased with his work then, as I still am with this one. If the terseness of the Essentials book leaves you scratching your head, this one will help you out, with more room for explanation. If you are an aspiring Mono developer this book will leave you hanging on the last half of the book. .NET is a new, still evolving beast, kudos to Liberty for tackling it!

A great book to reference and learn from. Especially if you are just begining to learn C#.

Great book to get you up and running with C sharp. Jesse Liberty has an easy to read style, that makes learning new concepts and syntax enjoyable. I would have liked to have seen further exploration of topics such as ADO.Net and the Windows forms classes, but overall a must have, especially if you are coming from a VB background as I did, and I'm never going back!

This is an excellent book. It is fun to read. The author grasps .NET framework and how it relates to and differs from other frameworks such as COM. The detailed description of .NET IDE is most helpful. The C# comparisons to Java, C++, and VB are both appropriate and useful.

Well done!

This review comes from a university student who finds writing console applications too boring.

I received this book, Programming C#, as a gift from a Microsoft Event, and I must say that the reading literature is excellent. This book is great for those who have programmed in C++ and/or Java. I was a bit mystified by the whole .NET platform "revolution" before I started reading. Although I have yet to finish reading it all, the book definitely has piqued my interest in learning more on Windows and web development (e.g. using ASP.NET). I look forward to reading other similar books by Jesse Liberty and O'Reilly.

This is a very complete book that deserves to have several advavnced chapters reread. For example, I read some articles about Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP), went back to this book's chapter on attributes and contexts--all the important information was there to further my understanding of .NET support for AOP. I recomment this book over the ".NET Framework Essentials" (which I read after Programming C# and found much duplication of information). This book will become one of the C#.NET book classics.

Just I bought the book. I appreciate in all aspects. Particularly the presentation of the subject is concise and clear. I will add more the moment I will complete the book.
