‘Beginning ASP .NET 2.0 E-Commerce in C# 2005: From Novice to Professional’ by Cristian Darie and Karli Watson is one of the most unique and important books out there for anyone that is developing an E-Commerce site with ASP.NET 2.0. Starting from scratch, the authors step by step show you how to get a site running and WORKING well and efficient. Packed with 650+ pages of material, the authors break the steps down in logical parts, show how they go about the work to be done, and then provide the code which does the dirty work. Not only is it helpful, but it’s a joy to follow the steps as so much of the curtain is pulled away to show the developer how to get the job done. This is easily one of my favorite Apress books that I have seen. One of the nicest things about the Apress line of books is the fact that they write and publish books that no one else seems to and this is a perfect example of this. I’ll close with a chapter overview for your inspection:
01. Starting off
02. Laying Out the Foundation
03. Creating the Product Catalog: Part I

The book is truly for a novice, but only newbies to C# and not, say, Java, will survive chapter 3 of the book. I am a Java programmer and to me all that was the same idea with different syntax. In order not to get lost in varioius detailes of different C# object, the reader must be well familliar with OOP principles. Experience with other OO programming languages will undoubtedly help.
Other than that, which is typical of any programming book, the book is very informative and well organized. The author does a good job explaining various possibilities for working with databases in C#. I really like it. Recommended.

I am into this book halfway as a part of my personal training program having completed a couple of other books first. This book seems to give the whole package. I consider it superior to a Wrox book I have, but I wish it split apart the coding more like a Wrox book. Lot’s of typing! Anyway, this book’s a keeper!
