Practical Debugging for .NET Developers: Tools and Techniques to debug and solve real-world problems in .NET

This is a great book for debugging techniques and guidelines. Has many great tips, with plenty of code samples to point you in the correct direction. The topics are far too numerous to list here, but it's worth every penny, Michael has done a great job and sending a few shekels his way for the cracking coverage is a sound investment in your time & energy.

TL;DR; Well-written e-book about how you should chase your own bugs in production :)The book is really good. After reading a few pages I had the feeling that I was reading a how-to guide, as many techniques are reviewed in details, at some cases using different styles to approach the issue with one or more different tools.As an experienced developer I could find good examples and some tricks about debugging and using the IDE. In my case, it was really nice to read (again) about GC pressure and memory leaks with the authors' perspective, topics that are easily ignored when you or your team are behind schedule or switching tasks all the time.Some chapters have introduction sections, for the topic being covered or for the software used for the demonstration, but at some points I don't think it was enough for a beginner, so I would definitely recommend this book for persons with a bit more than basic development knowledge. Total beginners may struggle to understand some concepts.The e-book contains links to learn more and to video lessons. Not all listed softwares are covered in depth, but they have at least a summary and/or a short presentation.In general the book is well written, good usage and distribution of technical terms and with realistic examples. Need to say that I really liked that some examples are explanations of real life problems from the authors' professional life.
