    5.0 out of 5 stars Design Faster, Code Faster, Debug Faster!!!
    Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2011
    Verified Purchase
    "Coding Faster: Getting More Productive with Microsoft Visual Studio" is filled with great ways to improve your productivity! I learned dozens of ways to speed up my development time, I lost count before the end of the second chapter!

    "Coding Faster" has a great level of detail, yet is still very approachable. (my 9 year old just started reading it because she loves shortcuts). One of my favorite features is the "Understanding ____" topics. Zain Naboulsi did an excellent job of capturing not just how the tools work, but how you should use them.

    Beginners will learn so many important topics and tips. Intermediates and Experts will find numerous ways to work even faster (and who doesn't want to work faster?)!!!

    I highly recommend this book to anyone who uses Visual Studio!

    I have to say, I'm really disappointed in this book; no real value. I suggest saving your money and just using Microsoft's product help, or MSDN documentation.

    We will never be rid of code, because code represents the details of the requirements. At some level those details cannot be ignored or abstracted; they have to be specified. And specifying requirements in such detail that a machine can execute them in programming. Such a specification is code.

    I haven't gotten all the way through the book, but so far the book makes sense. We'll see what happens when the concepts are put into practice.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Loaded with Annoying, Useless Filler about Visual Studio 2005, 2008 and EARLIER!
    Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2011
    I liked the previous edition. If they updated it for VS2010, it would've been a good book. But whoever convinced the authors to pad each shortcut description with the key combo to use for Visual C# 2005, Visual Basic 6, Visual C++ 6, and even Visual C++ 2.0 (what!?) must've been thinking they'd widen the audience. But all the useless info (tables listing key combos for all those ancient environments take up 1/3 page) clutters the info with annoying visual noise.

    Avoid this book, unless you still do VB6 or VC++ 2 or VC++ 6 development.
