Must-have books for my new job
Historical article · Originally published July 18, 2003; technical details may be outdated.
My new job asked me to give a list of books that I think would be needed, so I made this one:
(note: some books are not here because they already have them)
Essential .NET, Volume I: The Common Language Runtime
Debugging Applications for Microsoft .NET and Microsoft Windows
Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture
Inside Microsoft .NET IL Assembler
Programming Windows with C# (Core Reference)
Microsoft ADO.NET (Core Reference)
Transactional COM+: Building Scalable Applications
can you recommend other good books? The focus is on being able to get in to the very core of .net framework, to know how everything works from the inside, and be able to examing, at runtime, anything within the CLR.
