Customer Reviews & Comments
I don't understand what the previous reviewers had in their hands, but this book is by far the worst book I've ever seen in my life. I can't believe that Amazon sells such crap, this book should be illegal: 1) There are literally thousands of spelling errors throughout the book, almost EVERY sentence in the book is misspelled. Unbelievable! But it doesn't stop there, the book is written in broken English, many sentences don't make any sense at all. You have to read each sentence three times to get the point. Capital letters, font sizes and styles are arbitrarily and frequently mixed without any logic throughout the book and aside from occasional dots, almost no other punctuation marks are found. This book is impossible to read! 2) Cross references in the text are totally out of sync and control -- non-existing pictures, code snippets etc. are being cross referenced all over the place making the book totally useless. Many screen shots are unreadable, and some images have been clearly copied from MSDN. 3) It was impossible to read the book past the first chapter due to 1) and 2), but from what I saw in the first chapter, the technical info provided in the book is useless at best, nothing you couldn't find on Google in 10 minutes. Summary: The book provides no technical value at all and looks like it was written with one hand on a cheap smart phone during a 20 minute ride on an overcrowded bus by a semi-illiterate person with basic command of English language. Amazon should be so kind and stop selling this book.
