Summary: Never disappointed me.
Comment: Visual Basic.Net How to program series by Deitel is a second book that I had been long looking for since I had bought e-business & e-commerce How to program by Deitel. I had experienced the first book written by Deitel and it has never disappointed me. Now, the second book, VB.NET is the best of all. I found the book is too useful to strengthen my knowledge and skill. With this book I could do self-study very effectively just because the book has well clearly and carefully written to present its points. If I want to compare to any other books, I feel that VB.NET by Deitel, the author is much more understand our needs in our learning process. As the result, the book offers a great deal for helping me to get good grade. I have borrowed some other books of VB.NET. As, my judgment, I found that VB.NET by Deitel is much more updated, established and experienced than any other book. I have more confident and fun to learn programming if there is a guide by Deitel's books. The book is so diverse to cover many topics and yet all written comprehensively for each topics. Yes, the book worth more than its price. Finally, it saves my time, money and energy to search for a better book of VB.NET.

Summary: An excellent VB.Net Intro textbook
Comment: As a textbook, Visual Basic.NET How to Program 2nd Edition covers every general feature of VB.NET with very nice code demonstration. A reader with little or no programming experience can learn how to program with VB.Net by reading this book and practicing exercises from each chapter. Since VB.Net has included full OOP capability, a beginner can decide to go further with VB.Net or migrate to other languages without major hassle after going through the book.

If you have working experience of previous VB (version 5 or 6) and have been using VB's OO features for more than a year, this book can help you to catch on the new language like it did for me. However, I do recommend that you start from chapter eight, nine, and ten. These three chapters introduce object-oriented features of VB.Net and do it beautifully. Once you understand the concept behind VB.Net, you should have no trouble to pick any remaining chapters to work through the examples and exercises. You can of course go back to the first seven chapters, even though they bore the hack out of me. Nevertheless, don't expect to write an enterprise application by reading this book, although you will build a solid foundation once you have done the book.

All for all, this is a book to help a beginner toward to the intermediate level, an experienced VB programmer updated, a nice reference book at the same time. It is not a must buy, but you won't regret if you own one. One last thing to mention, although it is almost 1,400 printed pages thick, the book is 1/3 thinner than an ordinary computer book with the same amount of pages. Maybe this explains the price of it.

Summary: The Greatest
Comment: I just got this book in the mail yesterday, and I love it. It is laid out perfectly for the novice .Net programmer. It is ideal for those of us who learn by doing (i.e. exercises and examples). Most books on programming just pack in tons of examples and text, but no exercises. Not Deitel. They load you up with exercises at the end of each chapter. Also, I like the full color lay-out. The VB 6.0 version isn't in color, so this was a delightful surprise. Some might find this distracting, but to me, it is refreshing. If you want to learn VB.net from the ground up, GET THIS BOOK!!
