Title: Disappointed
Product review: This book is my introduction to C# and although the style of writing is reasonably clear there are enough errors or omissions in the accompanying software on the CD to make the examples difficult for a beginner. The examples are created for use with DirectX 9.0b, and although there is a disclaimer in the book saying that an update for 9.0c will be forthcoming it has not happened. Emails to the author go unanswered. Some of the code has errors and will not compile, even though I have gone to the trouble of removing DirectX 9.0c and replacing it with 9.0b. I eventually was able to find and fix the error in example 6.3, but only after considerable effort that was not of benefit in learning the subject material.In summary, I do not recommend this book.
