Books I Like go to home

I Love Books, I am Planning to put a library of my own

If you're planning on getting programming books, here are my books on the shelf & mind at the moment.

This are my own opinions and nobody else's. 

 

There are two books I know of that are worth having, they are MFC Programming by Mike Blazscak and MFC Internals by Scott Wingo and George Shephard. Also Jeff Prosise has a good MFC book out as well.

 

Book Review

Programming Windows Fifth Edition 

Charles Petzold

If you planning to learn windows or you need to know the fundamentals of Windows programming, this book is the one.

 I strongly suggest you have this book on your book shelf.

I bought the second edition back in late '97.

A must for all  Windows  Programmers. Includes topics which are not covered by any other book.

This is the Windows Bible.

Programming Windows with MFC 

Jeff Prosise

If you planning to learn windows or you need to know the fundamentals of MFC programming, this book is the one.

 I strongly suggest you have this book on your book shelf.

This is the Windows MFC Bible.

Dr. Richard Grimes

Just about everything you need to know about ATL Programming.

I use this every day and keep it by my keybaord.

 Dino Esposito.

A good insight to shell programming, not the easiest of Windows Programming.

I recommend you have basic knowledge of COM before buying this book. 

Its aimed at the intermediate to expert Windows Programmer.

Dr. Richard Grimes

This is as it says a reference book.

I recommend you buy  Professional ATL Programming instead.

Dr. Richard Grimes

Not as good as the Professional ATL Programming. A bit to deep in parts. Covers the fundimentals of DCOM.

It takes you thru DCOM and programming DCOM.

This is based on true COM programming. Not for the faint hearted.
