Title: Be better called Programming Windows GUI with C# :)
Review: This book is for neither .NET/C# programming language nor Windows Operating System. It focuses on Windows GUI programming.It only spends about 40 pages on C# language basics, and also, it never mentions COM/COM+, which are very important features for Windows platform.This is the best reference book for windows forms and .Net GDI+ programming. It spends 1200+ pages to introduce all those Graphic and UI stuff in a C# way. If you are a UI programmer, this book is nothing but a must buy! It includes everything you need to know about .NET/C# GUI programming.But, if what you are looking for is some C# language reference, please refer to C# Primer: A Practical Approach by Stanley B. Lippman or Progamming C#. If what you want is a detail look into .NET platform/CLR, refer to Compiling for the .NET Common Language Runtime.
