I have been pouring through a lot of books on .Net and when I first pulled this book out of the box I thought there may not be much to it because it didn't appear too thick. I couldn't have been more mistaken. First, the print is smaller than most Wrox books I've seen. Second, this book packs in a lot of practical, heavy technical advice and samples in communication from .Net to COM, COM to .Net, Custom Marshaling and much more. Its well worth the money you'll spend and sure to become a heavily used technical resource.

Its only a couple of months after the retail release of Visual Studio .Net and we are still coming to terms with the new reality - and it will take months and not weeks to feel cool about it! Once you start to feel comfortable with VB.Net the language - I am still a bit shell-shocked - then you have to start thinking about migration and legacy. This is when all the smiles drop! From a time and cost perspective we know that this is where we have to get it right.
What is great about this book is that its written by highly skilled and seasoned fellow programmers - these guys know their stuff - they know the issues - they know the reality, and they focus just on interop! Make no mistake interop is not a cake-walk and we need a technical bridge. The discussion on API calls, COM & Marshalling and DCOM-Remoting-Web Services were terrific.
