Summary: A must have for a serious developer!
Comment: This book is absolutely one of the best materials i have read that is written for an intermediate level. I think the author does a great job at explaining things and providing "real life" examples.
One such thing that struck me was his explanation of "business objects" in Chapter 10 and giving a real life example of it, including the disadvantages and the alternative solutions. (You should know that there are several red books out there that deal purely about business objects but just beat around the bush hardly providing anything useful!). In other words straight forward information without buzz words or hype.
Good examples of Threads and ThreadPools. Information that you can use in a multi-threaded application and not some superficial exposure.
Great remoting coverage including the crucial examples of how to use interfaces.
Bottom line: Buy It!

Summary: Needs to be explicit about "Visual Basic.NET" only.
Comment: The front & back cover didn't mention that the book's examples are all in Visual Basic.Net. It would have been nice to know that, since I bought the book expecting C#. I wouldn't recommend the book unless the reader is fluent in Visual Basic.NET... or unless the author posts C# versions of the example code on the book's companion website.

Summary: Great Book...but...
Comment: This is one of the books that deals with Distributed Applications using Web Services and .NET Remoting. It provides you in such a length that you probably do not need any other book.
Excellent writing, examples and and every thing. The only reason for the "but..." part is that the code is in only VB.NET. It would have been nice to have both C# and VB.NET examples. Also, I could not get the code to compile with the latest .NET framework. May be things changed a bit, but not knowing VB and not being able to compile will limit and hinder the progress I made while reading the book.
Still, I would still keep this book at my fingertips for many reasons. If you are into Distributed Applications and want to take a look at how Web Services and .NET can help you build the applications, you *must* own this book.
