Hi all

Can I have your recommendations for WPF books please C# preferred, but I
don't suppose it really matters.

Thanks

Pete

Peter,

   I like the "Programming WPF" book by Chris Sells and Ian Griffiths:

http://www.amazon.com/Programming-WPF-Chris-Sells/dp/0596510373

   There is also the Petzold book "Applications = Code + Markup":

http://www.amazon.com/Applications-Code-Markup-Presentation-Foundation/dp/0735619573

Windows Presentation Foundation Unleashed

http://www.amazon.com/Windows-Presentation-Foundation-Unleashed-WPF/dp/067232891
7/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1195680056&sr=1-1


I hate titles that include words like "unleashed" but the book is good (the
code is in C# ... and XAML)

Personally, I could care less about WPF right now, preferring to focus on
WCF, LINQ, and related issues and getting to WPF (and Silverlight) when I
really have the opportunity to be required to do so. But, having read Adam
Nathan's book (in color -- nice) I'd concur that it's really good.

I'm going to go for "Windows Presentation Foundation Unleashed (WPF)
(Unleashed) (Paperback)".  Thanks everyone!

Pete
