Summary: Watered down version of the Transactional COM+ Book
Comment: This book is a somewhat condensed version of Transactional COM+ by Tim Ewald. However, this book is much better in summarizing (and reinforcing) the important issues when developing VB/COM+/IIS applications as compared to Transactional COM+ which does indulge in gratuitous details too often. Effective Visual Basic is definitely not for beginners, rather, it makes sense only if you've repeatedly wondered why COM+ works the way it does. Rule 3-4 also gives a good understanding of why stateless objects aren't always good. If you ever wondered why Singletons are not good in the COM+ world (or why you cannot stick COM object references into the ASP Session Object) then Rule 3-2 explains it all. This book is a must for anyone designs and implements scaleable COM+ applications. Many of the generic COM+ concepts apply whether you plan to use C++ or VB.

Summary: Development does it again
Comment: If any of you are familiar with Developmentor you'll understand why this is an excellent book - all of the authors work there. This isn't a book for beginners, but once you get past the fundamentals this book has numerous best practices that will save you a lot of time (ie. if you had to figure them out on your own). This is real world stuff that works - not theory. By the way, the other books I've read in this series are also very good.
