I'm not agree with the other readers who said that the book is not good. The book is well organized and the authors did a great job with that book and as all Mahesh books (they all great). this book will teach you ADO.NET not like the other books in the market that you find it consist of just 4-5 chapters and the others are useless. if you want to master ADO.NET get that book. I wrote that review because i read most of the books in the market about .NET due to my job as .NET Consultant and Trainer too so i'm sure that this is your book to ADO.NET .

Must have
This book has been my best guru in learning the ins and outs of database programming and ADO.NET. Authors give you an in depth understanding of ADO.NET, interfaces, internal classes and namespaces. The do a thorough discussion of every area of ADO.NET. Book is upto date, written using .NET version 1.1 and covers every available data provider including SQL Server, OLEDB, ORACLE, MYSQL, XML, ODBC and whatever else. Good chapter on ADO.NET FAQ. If you are learing and writing database applications, this book is an absolute must have.

Very Informative
I personally found this book an excellent coverage and very informative. Besides ADO.NET information, its full with tips and tricks. As an intermediate developer, I fould coverage on custom data providers, interfaces, ADO.NET FAQ, and detailed internals of ADO.NET data binding very helpful. Also, good coverage on every aspect including ODBC databases, OLE DB, SQL Server, MysQL, ORACLE, SYBASE, and others. This book definitely gives you an insight of ADO.NET technology and how the technology works under the hood. If you are not very fond with the grammer and looking for a good technical book on database programming, this book is for you.
