Ideal for anyone who's worked with at least one programming language before, C# 2012 for Programmers is extraordinarily comprehensive. The Deitels teach object-oriented fundamentals, including classes and objects, inheritance, and polymorphism. Then, they go far beyond the basics, offering thorough coverage of intermediate and advanced language features as well.

• Building a Windows Phone 8 App
• Building a Windows Azure Cloud Computing App

Throughout, the Deitels emphasize real-life examples, program clarity, software reuse, and component-oriented software construction.
