Peter Sheehan, The Assayer, Feb 2003
Most of the material is exactly what a pocket reference should be and there is no pointless 'page-filling' reference material.

The book includes a guide to C# language elements, a brief overview of the Framework Class library, a cross-reference for namespaces and assemblies, a list of compiler syntax and switches, and a regular expressions reference guide. O'Reilly's Pocket References provide details in a concise, well-organized format, these handy books aim to deliver just what you need to complete the task at hand. When you've reached a sticking point in your work and need to get to a solution quickly, the new C# Language Pocket Reference is the book you'll want to have.

5.0 out of 5 stars The biggest little book there is, 15 Jul 2003
By A Customer
This book is a dream. I’ve been learning C for a while now and the books that I was using – although good – were designed so that you took ages finding just a small piece of information. This book has everything that you can want at your fingertips. All topics are well organised and most importantly – concise. No trawling through paragraphs of general waffle and the authors bad jokes (a feature now common in programming books), this book just gives you facts coupled with clear examples. I cannot recommend this book enough.

If you want to learn C there is no substitute for buying a book which walks you through each step and gently introduces you to Cs features, but if you are familiar to C and just want quick information, this book will be more than sufficient. Think of it as a dictionary. You already speak English but you still need one to clarify things, that is this book; a quick reference.

3.0 out of 5 stars C# Language Reference, 5 Feb 2009
By U. Khan (Birmingham, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is VERY concise on the features of the C# programming language. I bought it before I had written any C#,having been told that C# was similar to Java, which is a language that I know very well.

In hindsight, I might have chosen a slightly wordier book. There are examples to highlight the concepts, but if you're looking for a little more elaboration, there are more appropriate books out there.
