Product Description:
Microsoft SharePoint: Building Office 2007 Solutions in C# 2005 is the third edition of Scot Hilliers market-leading SharePoint book.

I recently upgraded from Scot's Office 2003 version of this book, and I'm glad I did. Although most of the examples parallel the earlier book there's enough new material to make the trip worthwhile.
Let's be frank: SharePoint development is not for the faint-hearted. Building SharePoint apps requires a good working knowlege of Visual Studio, the [...]
So far, every example in this book has worked **exactly** as described. I've been using this book as my main tutorial for building web parts and features for SharePoint 2007. It's been a real lifesaver and has helped me avoid a lot of teeth-gnashing and hair-pulling.
Scot's long experience building all kinds of SharePoint applications and dealing with SharePoint administration issues really shows in his explanations and topic coverage. Scot's a very efficient and succinct writer, and he doesn't overstate the obvious or annoy you with irrelevancies. Too many writers constantly remind you how smart and skilled ... Read More

This is a must have guide for those initially entering the SharePoint world to do administration and development. It systematically walks through SharePoint installation and deployment and the basics of object management on the server. It has been a close companion in all my work.

As the author states in the book, this is basically a written version of what he would say in a class. And as with 95% of the training classes out there, it isn't worth anything. He doesn't cover things to make you understand how SharePoint works. He does even write much about C# SharePoint development. Most of what he writes steps you through setting up SharePoint servers/services, and many of the steps don't work. This is the first SharePoint book I have purchased, and I am looking for one that is accurate and useful... ...again... ...still.

Wow! I like the way Scot Hillier wrote this book. For experienced .net developers new to sharepoint, this book must be on your book shelf.
Scot Hillier walks you through fundamental aspects of Sharepoint, and shares his insightful thoughts along the path. At first, I do not understand why he solves problems using a variety of Microsoft technologies such as Visual Studio, InfoPath, Sharepoint Designer. To me, isn't that Visual Studio enough? Later, I realize that his way is the best since he picks the right tool for the right moment.
However, I do not see an enterprise sample in his book. I do expect that. Second, web part security is a tough topic. I expect more explanation. In the exercise, a medium trust level is used. According to the context of that chapter, a minimal trust level should be used.

This is a very good book from C# developers point of view. It covers most of the features that you want to customize in SharePoint. I like the presentation of ideas first and then exercises. It gives you a starting point on how to do it and it's up to you to go to a more complex level but at least it already gives you an idea what to look for.
I highly recommend it and it is easy to carry as it has only around 500 pages.
After this I will read the SharePoint Administrators Companion book by Bill English from Mindsharp.
