Hi

i have been using c# for over an year and I would like
to get a good book to start on Object orientation with patterns

Also I would appreciate if someone could point me to a
good book on designing solutions/projects using OOP i.e how
to go about creating classes etc

thanks for your help

Design Patterns Explained (2nd Edition) is an excellent book. Someone
suggested this book in this news group.

Hi,

Check http://www.csharp-station.com/ for a free C#-tutorial

or get one of the books listed below:

"C# unleashed" from Mayo or "C# A programmer's introduction" from
Deitel for a nice introduction on C#. They both give lots of good
examples.

Afterwards move on to one of the following books
"Beginning C# Objects: From Concepts to Code" APress,
"C# Class Design Handbook" Wrox,
"Introduction to design patterns in C#" AddisonWesley

Cheers,

Chris
 
Mark,

The "Beginning C# Objects" from APress is one of the best books, in my
opinion. Don't let the "Beginning" in the title fool you. The book teaches
you about OO concepts, and UML diagraming, etc.

One you are thorough with the OO concepts, there is nothing to beat Martin
Fowlers book on "Enterprise Design Patterns" -- it is heavy, in terms of
content, but very authoritative. One problem with design patterns is that
they are best learnt in the field, not via a book.
