Alex Homer is a computer geek and web developer with a passion for ASP.NET. Although he has to spend some time doing real work (a bit of consultancy and training, and the occasional conference session), most of his days are absorbed in playing with the latest Microsoft web technology and then writing about it. Living in the picturesque wilderness of the Derbyshire Dales in England, he's well away from the demands of the real world with only an Internet connection to maintain some distant representation of normality. But, hey, what else could you want from life? You can contact Alex through his own software company, Stonebroom Limited, at alex@stonebroom.com.

   Don't spend your money on bad books.

   This is an example of bad book. I usually don't write recensions but this time I was really mad when I payed this book and couldn't use it. Authors seems to know quite a lot about ASP.NET but nothing about how to write a book for someone who wants to learn something from it. And is noticable that they tried to fill the pages with contents. Just quantity and no quality.
