Experience with C# programming in the .NET environment is one thing. Actually applying it is another. Issues can often creep up when you begin to apply your programming knowledge to a practical application and resources for troubleshooting are limited. Until now. C# Programming Evolution offers you reusable, real-world techniques through targeted activities. You'll work with a complete example .NET enterprise application to learn techniques that will help you not only customize the example application but also build new applications from beginning to end. You will cover the three main user interfaces: Windows Forms, ASP.NET Web Forms and Pocket PC, as well as how to make practical use of XML Web Services. The .NET environment is constantly changing. C# Programming Evolution will make sure that you won't get left behind.

WPF Control Development Unleashed Building Advanced User Experiences In this book, two leading Windows Presentation Foundation experts give developers everything they need to build next-generation WPF applications–software that is more robust, usable, and compelling. Drawing on their close ties with Microsoft’s WPF development team, Pavan Podila and Kevin Hoffman give you a clear, robust, and practical understanding of WPF, its underpinnings, its overall architecture, and its design philosophy. Podila and Hoffman introduce never-before-published WPF design patterns and support them with robust, real-world code examples–all presented in full color, just as they appear in Visual Studio. The authors begin by explaining how to “think in WPF,” and then introduce powerful new techniques for everything from handling 3D layouts to creating game-like physics effects. Along the way, they offer in-depth coverage of data binding, building interactivity, and control development: three of WPF’s most challenging concepts. You’ll learn how to choose the right WPF features for every programming challenge, and use those features far more creatively and effectively. If you want to build truly outstanding WPF applications, this is the book that will get you there. <ul>
<li>Master the patterns and techniques you need to build state-of-the-art WPF applications</li> <li>Write more powerful and effective applications that reflect a deep understanding of WPF’s design philosophy</li> <li>Learn how WPF has evolved, and take full advantage of its growing sophistication</li> <li>Make the most of advanced declarative programming techniques</li> <li>Leverage IScrollInfo, virtualization, control theming, and other complex features </li> <li>Build more powerful interactivity into your WPF applications</li> <li>Create more visual software with 3D elements, custom animations, and shader effects </li> <li>Optimize WPF application performance in real-world environments</li> <li>Master design patterns for organizing your controls more effectively</li> </ul> Category: .NET Programming / WPF Covers: Windows Presentation Foundation User Level: Intermediate—Advanced

Kierkegaard's writings are severely complicated and readers often do not know what to make of them given the array of genres he deploys. He is at once a philosopher, theologian, literary critic, and poet in his own right who writes under multiple pseudonyms directed at an unsure audience. Stages on Life's Way is one of his longer and more elusive texts, and even scholars often shy away from it. The Divine Madness of Romantic Ideals offers a close and extensive reading of this puzzling production, showing how its disarming, concrete themes of personal love and marriage help unlock more abstract conceptual boxes within Kierkegaard's authorship for a general readership, pointing out the forest while paying scrupulous attention to the trees. The overall perspective of Stages is tracked in detail to show how the oft-evoked esthetic, ethical, and religious spheres of human life are concretely distinguished and problematically related in a kind of single developmental stage. For students of nineteenth century romanticism this reader's guide offers particular nuance to a tradition of reflection that typically blends an affirmation of eroticism, the natural world, and religious longing. For students of modern existentialism, if Kierkegaard is supposed to be the father, here we find clues about who the mother might be. For theologians it provides a peculiar literary theodicy, and for patrons of moral psychology an edifying disillusionment about the frailty of human aspiration and agency. Turning against the tide of cursory reading, this book is a model for treating a lesser-known classic.
