I would suggest the authors include a short chapter about various Toolbox controls so that beginners need not purchase another book. I believe that it could be somewhat difficult to understand the content included in this book without first understanding the fundamentals of ASP.NET. The author provides code samples in C#, but I feel that it would be great if the authors could provide code in Visual Basic 2005 as well as a separate code download.

Moreover, the authors should provide a project at the end of the book so that readers can utilize it to experience the rich features of ASP.NET 2.0. I would not recommend the book for novice programmers as they would find it difficult to grasp the content on the book since it has been written from the point of view of more advanced developers. I also feel that the book price is little higher than it should be, and I hope the publisher will take note of this point while publishing the next edition of the book.
