Negative Positive
Title: If you learn by doing, this book is not for you.
Review: I like books that teach by working through a sample project. The best of these types of books will give you the basic aspects of programming to get you up and running. This book is bits and pieces of Visual Interdev, but just when you think you're off and running it stops short, which is my take on the whole book.
