Entity Framework 4 in Action is an example-rich tutorial that helps .NET developers learn and master the subject. It begins by explaining object/relational mapping and then shows how you can easily transition to EF from ADO.NET. Through numerous focused examples and two larger case studies, the book unfolds the EF story in a clear, easy-to-follow style. Infrastructure and inner workings of EF are discussed when you need them to understand a particular feature.

This book is written for .NET developers. Knowledge of ADO.NET is helpful but not required.

Stefano Mostarda, Marco De Sanctis, and Daniele Bochicchio are all ASP.NET MVPs and core members of ASPItalia.com, Italy's largest .NET community. Collectively, they have over 25 years of .NET development experience.

Index

This is a very good Entity Framework book and I recommend it especially for junior Entity Framework developers. The book is written in fluent language and organized well. There are discussions about methodologies like Domain Drive Design and Unit Testing that I really liked which add to the content you are reading and enrich your understanding. The book is doing it job by giving a good deep dive into Entity Framework 4. I give the book 5 stars out of 5.
