If you have never been exposed to C, this is the book
This is an excellent book for beginners. I am fluent in Visual Basic but I had never been exposed to C. Suddenly I find myself needing to develop DLLs in C. I was scared to death because of the short time I had to catch up. I did not think C was that easy to understand until I started reading this book. Even if your previous knowledge on programming is very poor, this book will take you step by step so that you will be soon programming. The style in which it is written is very clear and simple, with very good down-to-earth explanations. The examples are very simple, they just show the concepts and are far from being a technical challenge, but they serve their purpose well. Mistakes: there may be a few, but nothing that can drive you lost (at least to me). However, it does not say much about using a compiler and if you are looking for advanced topics this is not the book, but, in this regard, the editor is very honest: at the back cover you can read it is for beginning to intermediate level users. I am ready to jump into the advanced texts. Thanks Mr. Perry.

For Beginners Only
This book is for the beginners and not for the Advanced C# programmer. There are a few statement structure mistakes in the book, but i would have never knew that unless i had read the fabulos book. The author also responds to your questions which is a plus although he may take a while since he is a buzy individual.What could have made this book really better though is some excercises to be done to test your C# programming knowledge, to see if u really understand it. All in all if you are looking for a book to start you up on C# programming this is the book for you.

A good for people who want to learn C programming
It is definitely a book for a starter by using simple, but not miss, example. On the other hand, it is also for the people who did not has any programming background.
