Format:Paperback
The book is very well written, however I personaly will only use it as a reference.
For those who have been using AJAX.Net / ATLAS since the beginning, this book simply serves as a reference, it doesnt actually introduce any new concepts.
Worth the price, but dont expect anything ground breaking.

Nice Introduction to ASP.NET AJAX 30 May 2007
By Scott Guthrie - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Dino has written some of the best ASP.NET books in the past, and has delivered another good one with this introductory ASP.NET AJAX book.

"Introducing ASP.NET AJAX" provides a nice introduction to ASP.NET AJAX 1.0. The book is written against the final ASP.NET AJAX 1.0 release, and so is current with the final APIs that was shipped.

The book covers both the server side libraries of ASP.NET AJAX (updatepanel, updateprogress, etc) as well as provides an introductory look at the client-side Javascript libraries. The book also provides a chapter that covers the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit controls.

The book itself isn't very long (300 pages), and can be read quickly. It also has a good index at the back.

If you are getting started with ASP.NET AJAX 1.0 and are looking for a nice book that will give you a good sense of the breadth ASP.NET AJAX offers, as well as how to start taking advantage of it, this book is a good place to start.

Superb book, extremely well written. 30 May 2007
By Sangeet Agarwal - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is a very good introduction to Asp.net Ajax.

In the first chapter itself the author shows you how to implement a rudimentary homegrown Ajax framework that helps explain what happens under the hood.

Part 2 of the book is focussed on explaining partial page rendering, and the author also takes you on a quick tour of control extenders (control extenders essentially allow existing server side controls to express Ajax behavior). The "Pulsating heart of Asp.net Ajax" explains the plumbing that helps build the Asp.net Ajax framework.

Part 3 of the book is devoted to remote method calls to web services and page methods, and also speaks about implementing client side authentication services.

This book is a true gem, buy it ...

Much needed description of ASP.NET Ajax 9 July 2007
By Stenberg, Jan Olof - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
A very good description of how to write good ASP.NET Ajax code, following Microsofts intentions with the framework. Each of the three books I have read, the other two are Professional ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX (Programmer to Programmer) and ASP.NET AJAX in Action, are missing small parts but together the are really good, a 5 star collection.
