But it does so with whatappears to be a collection of disparate technologies. In Programming.NET 3.5, bestselling author Jesse Liberty and industry expert AlexHorovitz uncover the common threads that unite the .NET 3.5technologies, so you can benefit from the best practices andarchitectural patterns baked into this newest generation of Microsoftframeworks. While single-topic .NET 3.5 books delve into WindowsPresentation Foundation and the other frameworks in greater detail,Programming .NET 3.5 offers a “Grand Tour” of the release thatdescribes how the four principal technologies can be used together,with Ajax, to build modern n-tier and service-oriented applications.Developers have struggled to implement these patterns with previousversions of the .NET Framework, but this hands-on guide uses real-worldexamples and fully annotated source code to demonstrate how .NET 3.5can make it easy.
