From the publisher

Gain an expert, high-level understanding of Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0--including prerelease insights on the next version of Microsoft Visual Studio. What problems can .NET solve? What architectural approaches does it take to solve them? How do the major technologies--including Microsoft ASP.NET 2.0, Web Services Enhancements (WSE), and the .NET Compact Framework--fit the bigger picture? Author David Platt tackles these questions and more in his customary style--concise, witty, and ultimately pragmatic. He presents topics and examples from the top down, illuminating simpler concepts first then progressing to greater technical detail--meeting the needs of managers, architects, and code-hungry programmers all in a single, eminently readable guide.

Get the insights and examples you need to work with:
