# re: LINQ Books

If you're including unreleased C# 3 books (as opposed to books *specifically* about LINQ) could you include a link to mine as well?

(C# in Depth)

http://www.amazon.com/C-Depth-What-need-master/dp/1933988363/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1

It covers LINQ to Objects reaonably thoroughly, but skims briefly over other LINQ providers.

"LINQ for VB 2005" should be with "LINQ for Visual C# 2005", under "Books on the LINQ Beta".

# re: LINQ Books

The upcoming 1700 pages book Professional C# 2008 (Wrox Press) has several chapters about LINQ and the complete book has been changed to the C# 3.0 syntax: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0470191376/christiannage-20
