This book is primarily aimed towards developers who are new to C#, have none or very limited prior experience with C# and are up for a CHALLENGE.
Having myself spent hundreds of dollars on expensive and quite frankly, not very indulging C# reference books (or encyclopedias), I am very fortunate (and now as I realise that this method of teaching exists, frustrated...).
Read what a former student has to say about the book: "Where to begin ? If someone asked me just off the street, how do you Learn the basics of programming - this is the book I would point to.

The author has worked professionally with C# since it was released and as a Microsoft Certified Instructor for a number of years teaching C#, Visual Basic.
If you are aspiring to take the Microsoft exam 70-483 this book can be a great complement to the more traditional encyclopedic books on the market in that it contains many complete examples and exercises that you can implement to deepen your understanding of C#.
It is not recommended that you only read the book conceptually from cover to cover; the best way to Learn is to be Tactical and actually implement the practical exercises after reading each chapter.
This mean that you actually have to read and implement the exercises in order to Learn everything the book teaches.
The content is tactical, practical and highly modular to make it easier for you to learn.
The book then gets progressively more challenging, describing, among other things, object oriented programming, generics, multithreading, asynchronous operations and reflection.
The first part describes the fundamentals of the C# language such as variables, loops and methods.
Even if you already have created a couple of small C# projects on your own or have been developing applications for a while you might find the content in this book useful as a refresher.
The book does not presuppose that you have any prior C# knowledge since the purpose of the book is to teach you just that.
