"If you're reasonably experienced with ASP.NET 1.1, and want a hands-on look at the new bits [in 2.0] and how to use them, this book can help you work through the issues much more quickly than anything you'll find in the product itself. Microsoft ships good products, but they're not focused on providing tutorials for upgraders. This guide slips neatly into that gap."

"I would recommend this book for all developers, not just developers migrating to 2.0. I have seen a couple of books on ASP.NET 2.0, and this one is by far the best.!"
Eric Christophersen, Web Applications Developer, Boston, Massachusetts
"I have seen many upgrader's guides that are simply an extended version of the MSDN documentation. They list the new features with a code snippet and totally skip the practical aspect of the features. This is definitely not one of those upgrader's guides."

"I was once again thoroughly impressed with the quality and stickiness of the Murach teaching technique. For those developers unfamiliar with the Murach approach who are open to trying a new, more concise way of learning, I highly recommend picking up Murach's ASP.NET 2.0 Upgrader's Guide, one of the best to digest from the latest .NET book harvest."
5-star review by Mike Riley at asp.netPRO
and in asp.netPRO magazine
"I am an MCT who teaches C# courses, and I unequivocally recommend this book to students. The coverage is thorough, yet easy to follow. If you are trying to migrate ASP apps and you use C#, you must have this book."
Chuck Easttom, IT Consultant
"What the first chapter did for this OCD reader who feels the need to read cover-to-cover (particularly if it's a strange new topic) was amazing—it mapped out the entire book comfortably in my mind and even encouraged and reassured me that it was okay to attack each topic individually. I quickly jumped to my favorite topic of SQL/XML data sources and then to GridView with the greatest of ease, not unlike a seasoned trapeze artist."

"As always, you've done a superb job with the Upgrader's Guide. I learned a number of things just in the short time I was looking over the new features chapter that starts the book."
Jeff Ross, IT Learning Consultant
