Here's what other developers have said about the .NET 4 and previous editions:
"Solid coverage of many concepts. I almost titled this review solid and wide, which describes both the material covered and the physical volume; it's a big book. The authors present a wide range of database concepts with realistic code examples. There is enough here to get you up to 'industrial strength' techniques."

"A good hands-on tutorial: Real good as a standalone reference or when used in combination with Murach's SQL Server book. Excellent to use in teaching a course on ADO.NET principles. Well-written, and aesthetically pleasing for developers' reference and/or instructors' use."
Jeff Laatsch, CS/CIS Information Specialist & Professor
"Your ADO.NET book is fantastic. I have been in IT for 11 years and have purchased several books in my day that deal with some aspect of programming, and none of them have been this complete. The examples are clearcut, concise, and functional. I will definitely purchase other books from your company in the future."
Mr. Stacey Pierce, Programmer, Radcliffe, Kentucky
"Your ADO.NET book helped me develop a full-fledged database application for work from the ground up. You've skillfully combined a reference book with all of the necessary components of an instructional book."
Ali Mutlu, Director of IT, XMED Inc., Addison, Texas
"Your excellent primer on ADO.NET is the first such book I have seen that makes real sense to me, because it actually focuses on something close to real-life database programming. In addition, the writing is clear, and the program samples are amazingly bug-free."
Curt Deyrup, Data Analyst, Data Processing Div., Bergen County, New Jersey
"I buy almost all your books on Visual Basic and .NET. When I saw your new ADO.NET book, I did not wait. I ran to Barnes & Noble on my lunch hour and I bought it and the SQL Server book also. Keep up the great publishing!"
Michael A. Gooley, Sunnyside, New York
"Your VB series as it is the clearest I have picked up. You guys beat Wrox hands down."

"I have been in software development for over 20 years and in technical training for over 10 years. I have come to appreciate books that are well written and well thought-out. This is by far one of the best books I have ever read. It is clear, concise, and with plenty of examples (this is very important!!!). My thanks to you and your staff for their outstanding work."
