The best book for beginners!
This book is incredible. I've tried several others, but there is often too much reading and not enough programming. This book starts you out immediately programming with the tools and concepts you'll need. The projects and the order of the material keeps you interested and moving at a quick paste. With other books, I started wondering if I would ever finish and learn what I needed. By the second chapter I was already up and running writing programs with graphics. Very well written and highly recommended. The last time I encountered a programming book this good was back on the old Commodore 64.

vb.net for students - very easy
I've tried to learn Visual basic net with other books, but I couldnt use them - they assume you are an expert already. With the Bell book, it started from the simple basics, and I recoomend beginners to get this book.
