What people say about this book
Murach's ASP.NET 3.5 Web Programming with VB 2008 has just been published, so we'd appreciate knowing what you think of it. Thanks!
In the meantime, here are some of the comments that developers have made on earlier editions:
"I purchased several ASP.NET books but didn't really learn it until I purchased this one."
J.R., Enterprise Developer, Florida
"I've spent hours and hours at online booksellers, on messageboards, sitting on the floor at the bookstore reading thru every ASP.NET book available, and it seemed none came close to this book for real-world, comprehensive teaching and practice. Each example builds on the previous one to build a completed application. Awesome."

"This book enabled me to write custom websites for two customers, which is exactly what I wanted it to do. No previous book did such an excellent job of demonstrating how to handle security and database classes."
Charles Profitt; posted at Developerland.com
"You can go into my upstairs closet and find 20-30 books that I have purchased since the days of VB6. All together, they could not add up to as much information as you have given me in the first 11 chapters of this book."
Thomas Nowak, Automation Specialist, New York
"After 10 pages of your ASP.NET book, I can already say it is the
best book of its kind I've ever seen. Easily. The reason:
your writing staff is so skilled they know how to start
at the beginning. Although extremely easy to say, this
skill appears to be almost impossible for other authors
to accomplish."
Scott Thompson, Business Owner, California
"I especially appreciated the workaround insights for common hang-ups, like dealing with back-button refreshes. These gems alone will be worth the price of the book for many first-time .NET web authors."
5-star review by Mike Riley of asp.netPRO
"A couple of keywords to describe this book: cohesive (chapter to chapter), concise (to the point, not confusing), meticulous (superior teaching technique - no holds barred, just couldn't be better). This is by far the best book I've purchased with regards to ASP.NET and VB. It certainly was a pleasurable read!"
