Yet another Book Post: The C# Programming Language 3rd Edition (Annotated)

I was recently notified that the 3rd edition of the C# Programming Language is out.

This version has is new in several ways.  Obviously, it includes a description of all the new C# 3.0 language features. 

In addition, a number of people were invited to provide annotations on the language specification.  It’s an incredible group of smart people:

Brad Abrams and Krzystof Cwalina (of Framework Design Guidelines fame)

Joseph Albahari (of C# in a nutshell fame)

Don Box (of Don Box fame)

Jesse Liberty (of Programming C# fame)

Eric Lippert (member of the C# team, with a fantastic blog)

Fritz Onion (of Essential ASP.NET fame)

Vladimir Reshetnikov (SDET on the C# team)

Chris Sells (of Chris Sells fame)

Oh, and they let me add my annotations as well.

Bill I have an honest question. What makes a good programming book?  I've purchased a few books (yes i made the error twice) from one of those individuals and the material was more boring than most textbooks Grand Valley had me buying.  In today's world where the majority of programming information can be found via API or doc files or forums how do you rate or rank a programming book?  Assuming other than great desk reference for those nights where you have no Internets.
