"Thinking in C#" by Larry O'Brien and Bruce Eckel, is available for download at http://www.mindview.net/Books/TICSharp
Currently available is the initial release (~800 pages; 4MB download; 11MB Word Document). Introductory chapters still contain material from "Thinking in Java." Chapters on language syntax are fairly complete, except attributes, reflection, and meta-programming are not yet translated, and "Thinking in Java" object-oriented discussions have been translated to C#, but not extended to cover coupling and cohesion. Coverage of exceptions, IO, collection classes, ADO.NET (except use of schemas in datasets), and Windows Forms is fairly complete. Notably unwritten is coverage of GDI+, XML, Web Services, and chapters specifically written for Java programmers moving to C# and Visual Basic programmers moving to C#. Download contains "Backtalk" system for providing feedback on specific technical points or to request additional clarification on a subject. Please let me know what you think.
