Sams Teach Yourself C# in 24 Hours

I came to C# in 24 hours with a background in programming and management of the software development process. The book is easy to read, is well organized with helpful exercises for each hour (chapter). It contains essential information about the language that is missing from the core reference works. I will keep it on my bookshelf for ready reference.I asked James Foxall a few questions via email and he answered them promptly and with excellent care.

Excellent book. Well thought out and presented in a logical and consise fashion. One of the best C# books I have used. A definate buy!

This is the best C# book out there. Absolutely the easiest way to learn C#. Very easy to read and understand. Very informative!Get your copy soon.

I wanted to see what the hoopola was all about with this new language. This book got me up and running with C# in relatively a short time. Good rundown on the main points of the new language and VS IDE. There is some rundown on .NET framework which was helpful. It's a beginners book, so don't expect any hardcore programming. It's easy to read and follow.. nothing complex. It's one of the few begineers books out there on C# I actually liked without getting lost..

I'm a visual basic developer who is considering moving to C#. I needed a book that discussed the basics of programming in C# and doesn't assume you already know C++. I found the book extremely helpful - particularly the info on ADO.NET. If you're looking to program in C#, or just trying to figure out what it is about, I highly recommend this book.
