I’m looking for a book that explains how to use ASP.Net MVC, Razor and jQuery to build classic business applications (Forms over Data, lists of data, authentication) with modern techniques (client side validation, ajax forms posting, jQuery, CSS).
I want a book that assumes no knowledge of web development and IIS but that assumes advanced knowledge of .Net 4.0. A book with no reference to how it worked in WebForms would be ideal.
Steve Sanderson has a really good book on this. It’s more advanced, but if you have good knowledge of .net you should be OK. Here’s Scott Guthrie’s review of it as well.
