"When I write my books I use the same language, examples, analogies, and entertaining exercises that made my class sessions fun and made the lessons stick. I was always thrilled when former students would return for a visit and tell me how they were able to solve problems at their new jobs when others were stumped because of the thorough programming backgrounds they got in my courses." -Joyce Farrell
although i didn't finished this book from beginning to end, I still read a good chunk of this book and it has helped me a lot in learning and surviving C# for school so far.
This book is very concise, declarative and descriptive. Nice explanations, examples, and excercises. It mostly just requires you to spend quite some time to get through all of it, but it is time well spent. A little too pricey, though.
