Praise for Essential Windows Presentation Foundation

“As one of the architects behind WPF, Chris Anderson skillfully explains not

only the ‘how,’ but also the ‘why.’ This book is an excellent resource for anyone

wanting to understand the design principles and best practices of WPF.”

—Anders Hejlsberg, technical fellow, Microsoft Corporation

“If WPF stands as the user interface technology for the next generation of

Windows, then Chris Anderson stands as the Charles Petzold for the next

generation of Windows user interface developers.”

—Ted Neward, founding editor, TheServerSide.NET

“This is an excellent book that does a really great job of introducing you to WPF,

and explaining how to unlock the tremendous potential it provides.”

—Scott Guthrie, general manager, Developer Division, Microsoft

“WPF is a whole new animal when it comes to creating UI applications, drawing

on design principles originating from both Windows Forms and the Web. Chris

does a great job of not only explaining how to use the new features and capabil-

ities of WPF (with associated code and XAML based syntax), but also explains

why things work the way they do. As one of the architects of WPF, Chris gives

great insight into the plumbing and design principles of WPF, as well as the

mechanics of writing code using it. This is truly essential if you plan to be a

serious WPF developer.”

—Brian Noyes, chief architect, IDesign Inc.;

Microsoft Regional Director; Microsoft MVP

“I was given the opportunity to take a look at Chris Anderson’s book and found

it to be an exceedingly valuable resource, one I can comfortably recommend to

others. I can only speak for myself, but when faced with a new technology I like

to have an understanding of how it relates to and works in relation to the tech-

nology it is supplanting. Chris starts his book by tying the WPF directly into

the world of Windows 32-bit UI in C++. Chris demonstrates both a keen under-

standing of the underlying logic that drives the WPF and how it works and

also a skill in helping the reader build on their own knowledge through exam-

ples that mimic how you would build your cutting edge applications.”

—Bill Sheldon, principal engineer, InterKnowlogy
