Pro ASP.NET MVC 3 Framework
The ASP.NET MVC 3 Framework is the latest evolution of Microsoft’s ASP.NET web platform. It provides a high-productivity programming model that promotes cleaner code architecture, test-driven development, and powerful extensibility, combined with all the benefits of ASP.NET 4.In this third edition, the core model-view-controller (MVC) architectural concepts are not simply explained or discussed in isolation, but are demonstrated in action. You’ll work through an extendedI feel that this book has been rushed out to be the first MVC 3 book on the shelf. It is full of errors and not just typo's. These include errors in the code it's self! I have spent several hours wasted trying to work out why my code doesn't work only to find out that the book it's self is wrong!The graphics included in the book don't always represent the results of the texts (for example screenshots containing tests that you aren't told about and even the down-loadable source code doesn't include!).The use of some code is even incorrect in some cases! These are only small things that I have seen so far (half way through the book) for example parameter orders incorrect in the tests that do pop up errors when they should but the errors will be slightly wrong causing more wasted time trying to work out what is wrong!The only reason I am still plodding though on trying to learn from this book is because I have already purchased it, there are no...

| Author: T. Anderson (PA USA) - .. | This is the perfect book for the beginner and the advanced MVC developer. It is a one stop shop for learning the ASP.NET MVC 3 Framework.It starts out with a nice little sample application that will get beginners up to speed fast. It then covers the MVC Pattern in detail and how it relates to Domain-Driven Development, Repositories, Dependency Injection, and Automated Testing.Next the is a chapter on the C# features a good MVC developer needs in their tool belt, as well as the Razor syntax. This chapter does a good job of introducing the Razor view engine.Then there is a chapter on the essential tools MVC developers should understand. This chapter covers Ninject, Unit Testing and Moq.In the next 3 chapters the authors take you through building a real application. Everything is included from the views to the repository (using Entity Framework 4.1), to the database. They also include the unit tests. The application is a complete store... | 5 | |
| Author: Alexis Rios (Duvall, WA).. | The book is the only one available for MVC 3 as today and it is an excellent book. Each chapter builds over the knowledge gained on the previos one, it shows full but easy to learn examples taking each topic this way as a hands-on tutorial. You can buy it without any doubts, you will learn ASP.NET MVC 3.0 for good. Only problem is the bad quality on images, it looks like this was printed (images not text which is good) with a low toner or draft photocopy (Reason why I am giving a 4 and not a 5). This should not stop you of getting this awesome book, but Amazon should send us a new book if re-printed properly. | 4 | |
