Title: Good, but not Beginner
Product review: First and foremost, unlike what some here have suggested, this is definitely no-where near a beginner's book. Before reading this you need to know not only C#, but also have a sound familiarity with ASP.NET as well. The book assumes that fully, and don't take that lightly! If you've just read up on C# and come to this book to learn ASP.NET, you are going to be lost before even getting to chapter 3. Read "Beginning ASP.NET Using C#" and quite a bit of the "Professional..." first.This is really a good advanced book on sound advice on designing web applications, just as the title suggests, with some useful examples to boot. IMO, it doesn't rise to the level of 5 stars, but nevertheless it's a useful read for people already familiar with C# and ASP.NET.If you've ever read O'Reilly's "Designing Active Server Pages", then think of this as the ASP.NET equivalent both in coverage and quality.
