Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Learn how to how to use C# for Internet programming with the hands-on techniques and clear explanations. This book discusses some C# features that allow rapid development of solutions such as garbage collection, simplified type declarations, and scalability support. The book explains key concepts in a simple and practical manner. Web Forms and Web Controls usher in an elegant way to make dynamic Web pages. The book covers these topics with how-to code examples and projects. One of the newest developments in Internet programming is the use of XML and the SOAP communication protocol. .NET Web Services harness these two technologies, and is covered in later sections of the book.
