This is the only resource (including every course on Udemy, every YouTube video, and even the books in the Development for Dummies book series) that handles every question I had and even the questions I didn't know I had. While I am not an absolute beginner, I was glued to this book and how easy it is to follow and understand. I agree with some of the negative reviews when they say there were not enough code examples and code examples that were in the book were not properly formatted. But that didn't slow me down at all. Best instructional source I have EVER purchased! Hands down. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great overview of ASP.NET *by R***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 9, 2013* This was my first foray into the ASP.NET world. I had previously worked on an Outlook plug-in that utilized C#, so I'm not unfamiliar with the coding language or the Visual Studio platform. As a result, the first few chapters were essentially review, though I read them anyway since there is usually a nugget or two I can pick up from the review. I found the book to be very well-organized with some great examples. In addition, all of the coding examples could be pulled from the website in situations where you get stuck. Relating to that, there were a few examples in the book that didn't seem to work right out of the box, but the process of figuring those out helped me to learn. I will say, and it has been repeated by other reviewers, that at times it was a little frustrating to learn about a particular concept and then find out chapters later that there is a much better way to do it and thus you'd gone over the other one essentially as reference (e.g. raw ADO.NET vs. LINQ and the Entity Framework). Now, I don't tend to mind that as much, as it gives me another opportunity to learn. Plus, you never know when you might need to use the older way to accomplish something (backward compatibility, customization, etc.).I've experienced other reference guides that continue to build on one example, so you can see it evolve and how the newer items improve your life. This one, however, relies on disjointed examples. The pro of this is that you start with a clean slate each chapter (in some cases multiple clean slates depending on the number of concepts covered), the con is that you don't get a chance to see what happens when you drop some different code into a program that is already geared to run on something else, and being forced to compensate for it. I did this on my own for some of the projects just to see that dynamic in action. However, all in all, the examples were quite good and illustrated many things within the ASP.NET framework that I definitely would not have visited were it not for this book.This book was a great first look at ASP.NET for me, and has been serving as a great reference guide as I've been tooling around on a small project. Relating to that, I will say that the index at the back has been less-than-helpful when I needed to look up some specific items that I knew I had come across at some point in the book.I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who is looking to get into the ASP.NET world. ### ⭐⭐⭐ It's a Slog but Useful *by J***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 5, 2014* I'm self-taught in most things computer, especially programming. Now I'm managing a fairly simple website and I need to know how to find my way around it and make changes and improvements. I bought this book because I was struggling with the intersection of ASP and C#.There's no way I could learn what I need to know by just reading this book. As a beginner, I just don't have the background to read what's offered and develop a full understanding of the concepts. That said, the book provides a framework for learning what I need to know. When I'm stuck, I Google the concept, learn what I need to know, then return to the book. It makes for slow-going, but I'm slowly developing the background I need.As other reviewers have noted, the book never tells you which files the sample code comes from. It's definitely worth downloading the sample files so you can look at the full code, preview the website, look at the source code, and make changes to see what happens. The code in the book doesn't always match the code in the files, but you can usually figure out what the author is referring to.I'm about 200 pages into the book and intend to finish it because my fairly simple website includes advanced techniques. That and the book will be more useful as a reference if I've worked through all of it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/8345628-beginning-asp-net-4-5-in-c-experts-voice-in](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/8345628-beginning-asp-net-4-5-in-c-experts-voice-in) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
