C# Unleashed

This is a book that contains complete coverage of the C# programming language. It's light on theory, necessary on syntax, and heavy on practical application. Each chapter brings you step-by-step from the core of the C# language to elements of the .NET Framework, and introduces advanced concepts on distributed n-tier Internet applications. Additionally, C# Unleashed shows how to debug, monitor, and scale enterprise applications, enabling you to use the C# programming language to ship the right code at the right time.
