Hi,

Which is the best book for C# ?

Programming C# or Inside C# ? Any other suggestions?

There's many books about C# out there ... but have a look here:

http://www.awprofessional.com/series/series.asp?st=44116

the .NET professional series contains some of the best books I've read so
far (yes, I know I'm german - but I read english books anyway ... ).
There's also a lot of C# books ... Best C#-book for me (but that's a
reference book, not for beginners, not for learning the language): C#
Programming Language, Anders Hejlsberg, Scott Wiltamuth, Peter Golde, look
here: http://www.awprofessional.com/title/0321154916

Thanks for your input. I have those books ( Inside C# - MSPRESS &
Programming C# - O' reilly). That's the reason i was asking about them.
Also, C# programming language is available as a document in the MSDN
website, i guess.

Deitel C# how to program is a nice book.

Liberty's book (Programming C#) is best for most C# beginners, but
Archer's book (Inside C#) is best for people with a C++ background.

Archer's book is easier to sit and read, but Liberty's book is more like
a college textbook. That doesn't mean Archer's book is light reading,
but rather his writing style flows easier, assuming you have the right
background and can follow what he's saying.

If you don't have a C++ background, but you learn C# and become
proficient at it, you might want to read Archer's book then. Once you
know the language basics you'll be able to follow his book better, and
he does have some interesting insights.

I've used Liberty's book to teach classes to experienced programmers
learning C# for the first time, and it has worked well.

I also like C# Unleashed by Joe Mayo.
