دانلود کتاب Professional ASP.NET 3.5 Security, Membership, and Role Management with C# and VB

The author clearly understands this technology space, I have no complaints with his expertise. And I gained some useful information here and there.

However I found that book to be very dense and overall the book did not feel well edited. Each chapter does a deep dive into the technology, but the information is hard to parse through. The author embeds a lot of reference assembly names and configuration references within the written paragraphs, making it harder to absorb the information.

Perhaps my expectations were wrong. I was hoping for a book that made me feel like a practical expert who could jump straight into a project after reading the book. Instead I felt that the book was more academic treatise than practical manual. I felt like I had been imparted a lot of deep technical information. But I was left with little practical to show for it.

I am giving this book 3 starts because of the author's clear and obvious expertise with the subject matter, and the fact that I did get some useful information here that I could not find elsewhere. But I felt I had to work very hard to get to it.
