Silverlight and ASP.NET Revealed
Product Description
Microsoft Silverlight allows you to create rich multimedia interfaces with the power and flexibility of Flash, but with the extensibility and the great tools that .NET offers. With Silverlight and ASP.NET Revealed, you’ll learn to use Microsoft’s Silverlight technology in conjunction with ASP.NET and Visual Studio 2008 (codename Orcas). You will ultimately incorporate Silverlight into an ASP.NET web site and use the ASP.NET controls that render Silverlight content. But you’ll also get the basics of Silverlight, too, making this book a must–read for any web developer curious about Silverlight.
Silverlight and ASP.NET Revealed assumes a deep knowledge of ASP.NET, but no knowledge of Silverlight.
Silverlight and ASP.NET Revealed
This is one of those books that made me always check the page count on Amazon before I bought another book from them.
It’s a pamphlet intended for initial exposure for developing technologies, but it was published and shipped way too late to be useful as such.
The actual content is okay, but its brevity and lateness disappointed me. I think I’ll stick to web articles from now on for early information.
