ASP.NET v.2.0 will make it easier to build consistent, professional user interfaces. It’ll simplify application management. It’s faster. And it’ll substantially reduce the amount of code you’ll have to write. In short, it’s worth learning -- sooner rather than later. And nobody outside Microsoft knows ASP.NET v.2.0 better than the authors of this preview guide.
Alex Homer, Dave Sussman, and former ASP.NET program manager Rob Howard cover ASP.NET 2.0 in unprecedented depth: everything from “code-free data binding” to mobile applications, security to caching.
