Belongs on your shelf with other red books, August 07, 2003
It's a shame that apparently Wrox has scaled back their book line since nearly going out of business, as this is one of the most practical, useful books I've read on ASP .Net. The book covers a lot of areas that generally are overlooked in the generalized books. For example, a great tip is to do your data binding in Page_PreRender instead of Page_Load because it happens after postback events are handled, thus saving you from having to perhaps do it twice.

The book also goes into more detail about the usefulness and dangers of viewstate, session and application objects, lots on caching, etc. This book will make you a better code monkey. Try and get it!

A great book!, June 10, 2003
This book is exceptional. It provides several programming scenarios for different operations, then lists the good and bad points of each. It also explains in which situation they are best used. For example: .NET Remoting vs. Web Services vs. COM

There are several performance tips given that I never thought about and they really work . . . I, of course, had to test them for myself.

If you are like me, you don't have time to test every scenario to find out which technique is best for every situation, this book helped to guide me in the right direction.
