From the Back Cover
"A fun way of learning VB. Tips and hands-on guidance give readers an amazing running start in software development." —April Reagan (Microsoft Corp.)
"The use of graphics and common application topics will capture student interest. The step-by-step approach enables students to work independently. The integrated debugging is superior to the pedagogical approach taken by competing textbooks. [The ASP.NET 3.5 case study with ASP.NET AJAX] would be an excellent starting example for my classes on ASP.NET programming." —Douglas Bock (Southern Illinois University)
"Using real life case studies is one of the best methods of teaching programming I've seen. Superb job! I can’t believe how easy it is now to add a database to an application." —Edward Hunter, MSCIS (Chapman University College)
"A great collection of practical tutorials and exercises for learning Visual Basic. An excellent book on VB 2008!" —Steve Stein (Microsoft Corporation)
"All you need to start creating great Windows-based and web applications with VB 2008. A crystal-clear explanation of the new LINQ technology." —José Antonio Gonzalez Seco (Parliament of Andalusia)
"The ‘Building Your Own Classes and Objects’ tutorial is well done. Marvelous work with collections. Very well organized tutorial introducing WPF and XAML." —Josh Pauli, Ph.D. (Dakota State University)
"I think the typing tutor example is an excellent way to explain Windows events and event handling." —Huanhui Hu (Microsoft Corporation)
"The best explanation and simple demonstration of AJAX that I've seen. I loved the Silverlight tutorial." —Christopher J. Olson (Dakota State University)
"Loaded with labs and examples. I particularly enjoyed the chapters on LINQ, Silverlight and WPF." —Chris Williams (Magenic - Microsoft VB MVP)
"Good job introducing Silverlight and how to consume a web service." —Matt Kleinwaks (Abby Rating Systems, Inc. - Microsoft VB MVP)
