There has been a huge surge in interest in 'Web 2.0' technologies over the last couple of years. This book aims to be a no nonsense introduction to these technologies for people who are realizing that they need Microsoft-based 'Web 2.0' skills on their CV.
Beginning Web Development, Silverlight, and ASP.NET AJAX: From Novice to Professional aims to give you the skills you need to start building web applications with Microsoft's next-generation technology as quickly as possible. Whether you're interested in ASP.NET AJAX, Silverlight, or the technologies that support them (WPF, WCF, WF, etc.), this book is the starting point that you need.
It adopts a "zero to hero" approach that concentrates on achieving practical results you can use in real projects rather than presenting a deep academic treatment that can't be immediately applied.
