Summary: Targeted Perfectly for ASP.NET Developers
Comment: This is easily the best book for working with XML in ASP.NET, devoted to the subject. The examples are all in C#, but that doesn't really matter. When I needed C# I could copy the code directly; when I needed VB.NET it was easy to convert. This is a well-written, easy to follow book that covers the most important parts of a complex subject, and has lots of good samples to follow. Other XML for .NET books are better for an overall survey of the subject, but the nice thing about Wahlin's book is that it has the gist of XML for ASP.NET programmers. Highly recommended.

Summary: Good, thorough coverage
Comment: While I've understood the basics of XML for some time, I've just not had a need until recently to dig into the nuts and bolts of working with it on the .NET platform. As an ASP.NET developer specifically, and with that need to know now on the table, I went on the hunt for books to help, and Mr. Wahlin's offering was an obvious choice.
First off, Mr. Wahlin is a terrific writer. The clear, friendly, and conversational tone of the book resonated for me, although I did find some of the verbosity and repetition a bit excessive in some spots.
The book begins with a good review of XML concepts, more than enough for a newbie, but easy to sift through for the more seasoned reader in need of a knowledge refresher. It continues through all the necessary concepts, including the XML classes in .NET, transformations, and of course, ADO.NET, the database core of the .NET platform. (On ADO.NET, it includes a general introduction, but of course focuses on it in an XML context.)
I have to say that one of the best outcomes of reading the book and experimenting with what I learned along the way is that many of the ADO.NET concepts that still seemed abstract to my not-quite-up-to-OOP brain suddenly fell into place and made much more sense to me when tied to the structures and concepts of XML.
No book is perfect, and I could have used some more detailed coverage in some areas. But overall, it's a great walk through the world of XML for the seasoned ASP.NET developer in need the grand tour. It sure was a help to me...

Comment: Actually I liked the way that the author wrote that book. As a developer you must master XML and without it you can't do anything. This is your book
