Summary: Practical and Helpful
Comment: I found this book very helpful. It covers in details some of the quirks of the ASP.NET server controls - namely, that these controls do not work the same in all browsers and provides solutions to working around this issue. The book also contains some very practical coverage of JavaScript integration, Sessions, Cookieless Sessions, IE Web Controls and Caching.
Because this book is focused on the user interface (Web Forms), the programming language of the reader is not extremely important. The book is written in VB.NET. I am a C# programmer and found no significant language barriers in the book. The book's code can also be downloaded in a C# version.

Summary: Mission accomplished !
Comment: I love this book. This is a step-by-step account of how to build a real ASP.NET web page. No 'snippets' here. The author takes you through a real-world type project from design to code, with complete explanations of the techniques used.
My favorite aspect is that we are taught how to solve problems and create things - not just pieces of a language. This is not just about ASP.NET either. The author explains how and when to incorporate client-side Java script, when to use the HTML controls, when to use the .NET controls - we are learning how to use the best technique for the situation. And as I am learning, that 'best technique'(espcially with UI's) is not straight '.NET', but a combination of server-side and client-side technologies. The example project incorporates the IE Explorer web controls - providing a rare reference on their use.
My only qualm with the book (other than the picture of the author(?) at the begining of each chapter) is the ... retail price. We rapidly approaching the ... average price for a computer book, and I don't think that's a good thing. For over ..., I at least want a CD. But if you really use the book, of course it's money well-spent.
Therefore, I can heartly reccommend this those who know the basics of ASP.NET, and want sink their teeth into creating full-featured, interactive UI's.
