Jon skeet's book C# in Depth

Hello!

This question is for Jon!

I'm interested in your book "C# in Depth" but I wonder how good do I have to
be before understanding anything from your book?

Just buy the book, even if you aren't that "good" by now, I can guaranteed
that you will become a lot better after spending some time with it.

You need to have an understanding of C# and .NET and not be afraid to get
into the details of things :)
It seems to be a good book, I only read the free first chapter and I liked
it a lot, I'm waiting for the printed version.

Speaking as someone who has read the entire book...

What I thought was really cool about Jon's book is that it is not a
comprehensive C# book. I don't need another 1200 page tome explaining what
variables, methods, OO, forms, web services, ADO, database access, etc. are.

Jon's book explains features in C#2 that aren't in C#1 (or features that
have changed), and same for C#3 versus C#2.

This was an excellent and fairly specific way to see the differences between
the versions and focus on the new features of C# available in the new
versions of the .Net Framework.

I highly recommend it for any C# programmer.
