Very impressed!
There is a saying 'better late than never!', so I'm writing this review. I just borrowed this book from the library looking for a way to understand classes, constructors and destructors, and fortunately I found them here in this book! I esp. like chapter 3 & 4, and I bought my own copy from Amazon as I am very pleased!
I hope Mr.Jamsa will follow this up with another for Visual Basic 2005 or 2008.

Good coverage of .NET Assemblies
Chapter 12 dissects assemblies and covers versioning. I am moving from the Java world--understand manifests in Jar files. This as good discussion.

Object Reflection 101
Explained reflection in great deal ,,. things now make sense. Was able to convert the demo program that queried itself (types of objects--their methods, attributes, ,,.) into a ASP page that performs a very generic sort of ado.net data. Very cool.

User review
Great content
Covers all aspects of VB.NET. The discussion on threads demonstrates classic coding -- locks, monitors, and more -- the code works!

Good coverage of ASP.NET and Web services.
