Dies ist ein äußerst nützliches Buch für jeden Entwickler, der sich sehr intensiv mit .NET befassen muss. Hier habe ich viele hilfreiche Tipps gefunden, die mir bei der Entwicklung mit Visual Studio weitergebracht haben. Und was mich am meisten erfreut, ist die Tatsache, dass ich die Entwicklung von verteilten Services mit WCF als hoffnungslos kompliziert und beinahe unmöglich fast aufgegeben habe. Aber dieses Buch hat mir geholfen, erste funktionierenden verteilten Services mit WCF zum Laufen zu bringen. Dies ist ungefähr das 5. Buch mit dessen Hilfe ich dies versucht habe.Die Art, wie Sur seine 'Rezepte' gestaltet, ist sehr leicht nachzuvollziehen. Ich kann dieses Buch uneingeschränkt für jeden empfehlen, der komplexe Anwendungen mit Visual Studio und .NET entwickeln soll.

Full disclosure first, I did receive a review copy. That being said I found good and bad things about this book. While it does say cookbook do not expect 20 to 30 recipes per chapter. The book covers three to four topics per subject in the chapter. You get some general topics like WCF, Windows Phone, Debugging, Extending Studio, Testing, and Azure. Windows Phone is constantly changing so while useful, sometimes the platform is in flux. You do get a step by step per topic or recipe. I could follow them but at times the author skipped a slight step or two like what did he name the project. You need to refer to the source code to get some of these steps. A true step by step includes everything but to keep the book smaller I think some of it is not there. Again refer to the source code. I will also point out this is not a book for beginners now it will serve well as introduction to some of these topics mentioned and you go get some examples. A chapter on TFS is included but you need access to TFS server. I worked with the Visual Studio online and I could follow some of it. I also have some familiarity with it as I use it for work but sometimes you need to reread the topics again. One excellent thing the author did was provide links on every topic where you could read for further clarification. More authors should do this.ProsBroad coverage of range of topicsStep by step coding examplesLinks at end of topics for further coverageCons depending on your point of viewMay seem too general. It gives you stuff to start and some different coverage but still may need more to understandSamples step by steps may miss small steps like names of projectsNot for beginners (not a con per se as this is a cookbook not a beginner book)Technology is subject to change (Azure, Windows Phone)I found new stuff in the testing and debugging and T4 templates. You should find something useful in this book.
