I have read many books on .NET but this has to be one of the best there is. Ingo Rammer delivers a detailed explanation of every aspect of .NET remoting in a clear and concise manner. He has tailored his writing to the more advanced developer but somehow still manages to write in a way that doesn't come across as either dry or confusing.

The first half of the book covers everything you need to know for developing distributed applications with the .NET Framework. The second part gives you a thorough technical insight that will allow you to really understand what's happening behind the scenes and how you can tap into customizing the framework to suit your exact needs. I found this to be very effective.

One of the things that really stands out are the numerous examples that he has following every section throughout the book. He has obviously spent a great deal of time on these examples and, unlike a lot of other books out there, has made sure that they compile and execute as expected.

...

Finally, a book that's not all fluff. I didn't need another book to go over the .Net language and framework at a high (Beginners level) AGAIN, like so many other books that are out there. I needed some real information on how to implement this VERY important technology that somehow seems to have been glossed over in lieu of Web services. I work for a consulting company that continually creates intranet applications for some major financial players and up until now we've been using a Web based model. Well now we are using .Net remoting with windows forms and it is like night and Day. Ingo Rammer covers all of the important topics and methods that you (the professional developer) will need to know. It's thorough, it's clear ,it's concise, and it's directly to the point. Each topic is clearly explained and all of his examples are easy(enough ) to follow. Ever serious developer must have a copy of this on his book shelf. Ingo even directly answered some questions I had by email that saved me hours of needless work. 5 STARS (I'd give it 10 if I could)

This is the best book concerning remoting, which i know. All principals are here thoroughly explainded and demonstrated by example programms. I recomend it from beginners to advanced users.
