I'm not quite a beginner, but I wouldn't call myself "experienced". This book has accurate and well explained information on using the C# language. Even though I've been using if-else, for and while loops for some time, I learned some new things about these and other loops. I skimmed through some sections as I already knew most basics, but no chapter felt useless. At least challenge yourself and see how much of the tasks you can do without peeking at the book first!

While working through this book, I also got the impression that the author genuinely feels passionate about the subject, which also makes for a more interesting read. Especially for those who struggle to finish books/courses, I'd say give it a try.
