"Essential C# is a clear, concise guide to C# 2.0 that gives software developers everything they need to quickly get up and running writing C# applications. Written primarily for experienced developers who want to learn C# 2.0, the book also includes enough introductory material to help beginning programmers, and enough new and advanced material to interest experienced C# professionals. In order to pull off this juggling act, author Mark Michaelis has done an outstanding job of organizing his material. Graphical "mind maps" at the beginning of each chapter make clear what material is being covered and how each topic relates to the whole. The book's layout clearly indicates material for beginners, advanced topics, key principles, features specific to C# 2.0, and comparisons between C# and other languages. Every important construct is illustrated with short, clear code examples. C# 2.0 has a number of new features that make the language even more powerful, productive, and efficient, all of which are covered thoroughly in this book: partial types, global namespace qualifiers, property access levels, anonymous methods, generics, iterators, and background worker patterns.
