November 13, 2007: I am a spare-time software developer and I have a lot of experience building web sites and previous versions of Visual Basic. I needed to build a database driven intranet site to exchange information betlween my 3 offices of my company in different continents and wanted a book that would give a good taste of ASP.NET. I wanted a book that didn't drown the reader with useless details and over simplification. And this book does the job. John Kauffman and Bradley Millington managed to hit a good compromise - enough words to get the point across in a clear manner, without boring the reader. Not boring yet still explanatory. Wrox support behind this books is excellent as other books published by Wrox. A rich content support web site really helpful in the sleepless nights when you keep some broken code coming back to your mind. I fully recommend!..
