Another book I can't recommend
Just picked up the grandiosley titled "Building Enterprise Applications with Windows Presentation Foundation and the MVVM (Model View ViewModel Pattern)" from Microsoft Press.
A comparatively slim volume of about 180 pages and seven chapters. Chapter 6 (at page 150) is titled "Introduction to the MVVM pattern" which about sums up the problem - the bulk of the book waffles on about 'Design Patterns', 'Seperation of Concerns' and similar generalities. And chapter seven is really just an appendix listing MVVM frameworks and tools.
So : One chapter worth reading. NOT.
If you understand the MVVM idea then you learn nothing.
And if you don't then I've a horrible feeling that it would be incomprehensible.....
Which leads me to a generalization of most Microsoft Press books I've read:
If you are already familiar with the subject matter than all you get is a turgid rehash.
And if you are not then it is too densely written to be absorbed......
Anyone care to recommend a book from the MS stable that *is* worth reading.......
