C# in Depth: What you need to master C# 2 and 3

by JonSkeet (Author)

Synopsis

C# in Depth is a completely new book designed to propel existing C# developers to a higher level of programming skill. One simple principle drives this book: exploring a few things deeply rather than offering a shallow view of the whole C# landscape. It is a book for those readers who want just a little more at the end of a typical chapter. Expert author Jon Skeet dives into the C# language, plumbing new C# 2 and 3 features and probing the core C# language concepts that drive them. This unique book puts the new features into the context of how C# has evolved without a lengthy rehearsal of the full C# language. And it sticks to the language, covering new framework and runtime features only where relevant. C# in Depth is both a vehicle for learning C# 2 and 3 and also a reference work. Although the coverage is deep, the text is always accessible: Readers will explore pitfalls that can trip them up, but the book skips over gnarly details best left to the language specification. The overall effect is that readers become not just proficient in C# 2 and 3, but comfortable that they truly understand the language.

Author Bio
Jon Skeet has worked with C# since 2002, and has been a Microsoft C# MVP since October 2003. He has spent a great amount of time in the C# community answering questions in newsgroups as well as writing articles on the most misunderstood aspects of C# and .NET. After having read tens of thousands of questions over the years, Jon has developed a deep insight into the areas that developers have trouble with, as well as what they're trying to achieve. A keen reader of specifications, Jon aims to understand the language at the deepest level, which enables him to provide a detailed exposition of C#, including a few dark corners which can trip up the unwary developer.
