Microsofta .Net Remoting

By now I have read numerous books on .NET remoting. ".NET Remoting" by McLean, Naftel and Williams is by far the best. What I like most about it is the writing style; it is clear and concise. What's more, the writing is grammatical and at times best described as elegant. Kudos to the authors. In my opinion, this book is a "must have".

As owner of some 20 MS Press books, I'd like to congratulate the authors on doing a particularly good job with this one.The only exposure I had previously to the Remoting part of the Framework was the little resource I could find on-line at MSDN [either way too over-the-head for a first timer, or pretty useless] and a few "tutorials" which, on the whole, had been pieced together by people who knew only a little more than me.Having said that, it would suit someone who has some experience in Remoting, too.I agree with a previous reviewer that it does fall into the trap, as a lot of technical books do, of displaying a code snippet, half of which is 100% in context with accompanying text and the other half of which is approximately 0% in context - only making sense once you've read a few more pages.Will serve as an excellent reference book in months to come!

This manuscript was extremely helpful to my colleagues and me in our most recent project. For anyone dealing with a .Net initiative involving any sort of distributed, and most importantly scalable, application this guide is a must read.
