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.
