Murach’s ASP.NET 3.5 Web Programming with C# 2008
Product Description
“In the last 3 years, I have tried to learn C# for web programming using books from a number of different publishers, but have always lost my motivation. The books were just not geared toward someone trying to learn on their own. Then, I checked out your ASP.NET/C# book from our corporate library. What a fantastic book! It’s in such high demand at work that I bought my own copy.” (A developer’s comment on the 2.0 edition of Murach s ASP.NET)Already know how to code … More >>

I’m new to .net and also C# and I bought this book in hopes to learn the basics as well as more complicated applications as I get further into the book.
But it appears this book assumes you already have experience with both so you feel lost at times. For example, one of the very first exercises says to create a checkout page. It has 7 or so items they want you to do, but don’t really give you any tips on how to accomplish them? If you get stuck you have no where to go, to look for help on the exercise. It wants you to add code to your pages, but I have no idea what the code will be!
As I’ve been reading this book, I feel like I jumped into an already started project and being asked to complete someone else work, and not sure how to do it.

Though I am a big fan of Murach’s programming books, they are certainly the best ones to give you a good start and are useful in the real world programming. However, same cannot be said about their ASP.NET title, it tries to cover too many things and in the process doesn’t cover them well. Through the book I get feel as the author is mentioning what are the tools of ASP.NET but doesn’t show how to use them properly. It is a good book to get a quick enough knowledge about ASP.NET but I would recommend if you are planning to do this professionally, also get the Apress Title by Mathew McDonald and Programming ASP.NET by Jesse Liberty. Or if you have only $30 to spend on a book and you are a beginner,then go with the Apress one.

it’s a good book, don’t get me wrong, but it felt really disjointed. normally these kinds of books follow a website constructed from start to finish, illustrating code and practices a long the way. this book, however, felt like I got thrown into the middle of a project that was half finished, and in my opinion it used theory as a filler rather then move from example to example as you would build a website. anyone starting out with C#… this isn’t the book for you. It’s well written, but for a specific audience.
