Amazon.com: Books: .NET Patterns: Architecture, Design, and Process: "This book is a great resource for .NET Framework developers, with patterns that are very useful and nicely solve many common .NET Framework design challenges. In particular, I like the composite 'Poly Model' pattern for a flexible data access layer.
Unfortunetely, the code is full of typos and just plain errors. It is frustrating to see a piece of code querying for the number of rows effected by a query, when the count was already returned to another variable just one line above! Terrible editing has taken much pleasure out of discovering the interesting and effective patterns.
I am most disappointed in the fact that there is no downloadable code samples that show the sample implementations in their entirety, and working (which would at least force the author to make sure the code can compile).
The only reason why I am giving 3 stars is because the patterns presented are excellent overall, but this book is like reading a first draft."
