    Good c# GUI book

    Anyone recommend one? I've got "Windows Forms Programming in C#" by Chris Sells, which is quite good as a starter, but I really want something that is prepared to tackle the harder issues such as multithreading without saying "This is not within the scope of this book"

    Any suggestions welcome. Thanks.

        There are 2 free chapters, the rest of the book is pdf downloadable

          I think that is a .NET 1.1 book.

          .NET 2.0 introduced quite a few new features and enhancement around threading and the anonymous delegates in 2.0 makes the code a lot more compact when creating threads.
