Introduction
LINQ is a query-like language for .NET that makes it easy to get information no matter where it comes from, and the information is retrieved the same way regardless of how or where it is stored. This sameness significantly improves productivity. In essence, LINQ provides a very clean, usable, efficient way to query data sources directly from within programming language code. LINQ is the most important new feature of Visual Studio 2008, and has been widely anticipated by developers. Larry O'Brien of SD Times calls LINQ "an important innovation that is garnering essentially unqualified raves and already being extended in fascinating new ways." As with any new technology, however, there will be a learning curve for developers wishing to use it. Linq Unleashed will be the best way for professional programmers to get the most out of LINQ. In addition to providing comprehensive coverage of LINQ's features and practical examples to show how to use those features, the author will provide enough underlying
information so that you can grasp the "why" of LINQ.
