Hi! I'm Cristian Darie, and I'd like to let you know about my latest ASP.NET/SQL books: "Beginning ASP.NET 1.1 E-Commerce", "Building Websites with the ASP.NET Community Starter Kit" and "The Programmer's Guide to SQL".
"Beginning ASP.NET 1.1 E-Commerce" (Apress, 2004) teaches you how to build an e-commerce website in a case-study style, each chapter presenting new theory concepts and building a new feature on the living web project. The book is, according to the feedback we received about it, the best book you can find for getting started with ASP.NET e-commerce, or to get started with practical web development using ASP.NET and SQL Server. Check its Amazon page at http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1590592549/ ref=nosim/cristiandarie-20. "Building Websites with the ASP.NET Community Starter Kit" (Packt Publishing, 2004) will help you understand, implement and extend the Community Starter Kit as fast and easily as possible. You'll learn how to use the CSK to build fully featured community websites with support for article pages, books, events, photo galleries, downloads, user polls, and more. You will also learn how to build your own modules and features, and how to effectively use the built-in features including moderation, upload quotas, comments, content ratings, newsletters, advertisments, web services, security, administration pages, and more. You can get this book with a 30% discount from http://www.packtpub.com if you use the promo code "darie0804" at the checkout stage. Check its Amazon page at http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1904811000/ ref=nosim/cristiandarie-20. "The Programmer's Guide to SQL" (Apress, 2003) is, as far as I know, the single book on the market that explains the SQL standard with practical examples for SQL Server, Oracle, IBM DB2, MySQL and Access. Apart from teaching the SQL fundamentals, the book also includes two complete case studies, showing how to create and query the underlying database for a fully featured web site, and how to implement role-based security in your applications. As such, it is ideal for any programmer, analyst, or database administrator in search of an SQL reference that also demonstrates how to use SQL to solve real business problems. Check its Amazon page at http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1590592182/ ref=nosim/cristiandarie-20.
