Expert C# 2005 Business Objects, Second Edition

When Rocky first presented his incredibly significant CSLA.NET architecture and framework, he helped trigger a sea-change in the mindset of VB enterprise developers that is still at work today. His depth of thinking now influences developers across the language boundaries, and the previous editions of the books were bestsellers.
Deep Q&A sessions spark up every time Rocky speaks; it seems that an entire generation of professional .NET programmers are employing Rocky's ideas in their critical work. Rocky has thought through the enterprise problem space deeply, and he is a modern master at answering the practical questions.
On Wiley acquisition editor Jim Minatel's blog, he gives his opinion of the commercial potential of the book: "Shoudln't be a surprise that Rocky is working on revisions of his Business Objects books. Man do I wish these were Wrox books. That's not some great secret either, right? Yes, out of the 30-something best-selling books we bought we missed the potential for Rocky's then-unpublished book. I'd still say we were 90% or better successful in picking the right books. But I'll reiterate, man I wish these were ours."
