Long-time asp.netPRO readers may recall my review more than four years ago of the first edition of this book (see ASP.NET Unleashed). Author and Microsoft-named “Software Legend” Stephen Walther has been busy writing a sequel — of sorts; however, ASP.NET 2.0 Unleashed is not simply a re-editing of the first title, but is nearly a full rewrite on the subject. Topics like GDI+ and deprecated ASP.NET 1.x topics were dropped in favor of the slew of new features in the 2.x release. And stale topics like Web services are given minimal space (in a book of nearly 2,000 pages, only four pages barely reference the technology). A nice correction in this version is that, unlike the first edition, references to the accompanying CD-ROM are indeed correct. In fact, the CD bound into the back cover thankfully contains all the code from the book in both VB and C# syntax, even though, like the original Unleashed title, the code listings in the book are exclusively in VB-only syntax.
