Customer comments on this selection.
 Useful but expensive and poorly produced
Lots of useful information, particularly the tips for debugging release executables, but very poorly produced as a book.
br /
br /The copy I received (and returned) appeared to have been made from a badly cropped set of bound photocopies. This is completely unacceptable at this price.
 Very good but a little dated
This is a very good book, although it is now a little dated. The explanations on customizing watch windows, and tuning default step over behavior has already payed for itself in terms of time savings.
 Bad Print
I bought this book and was so shocked to see the print quality of the book. All the left inside pages had incomplete sentences due to print. Not only this the words break into next sentences. I have never seen such a bad quality of print in my life. The font is pathetic. I have to say this but I can guarantee the technical writers/review did not review this book after the print because its impossible to read the pages beacuse the sentences are incomplete and words left out b'cos of mis print.
br /Is this only my copy or every copy has this problem. Can somebody confirm this? I am surprised how anybody has not noticed this?
 A MUST HAVE. PERIOD!
This is the best book in debugging I have ever seen. What I like most about this book in addition to the technical value it has, is being concise and more to the point. There no much unnecessary detail. For people with little patience on reading like me, this will take you directly to the problem you have.
br /
br /- The book covers the most common issues a developer needs while debugging his application. I will not go into detail, but things like debugging memory problems or finding where your application crashed (in the source code level) having the crash address, to deadlocks and multithreading.
br /
br /- The best chapter in the book in my openion is the multithreading and deadlock analysis. The best treatment in a book. Its coverage is even better than John Robin's book.
br /
br /If you have to buy only one book about debugging, buy this one. Only if you are rich, and willing to buy another one just for the sake of it, buy John Robin's
Pays for itself within your first project
I wish I had this book before - only discovered it recently. This book pays for itself within your first project. Surgical precision-like debugging. Wealth of information. I hope they are working on a sequel to this book for .Net development.
