I have been reading "Microsoft Windows Internals" (by Solomon & Russinovich)
off and on and find it an excellent resource for understanding what goes on
under the hood of Windows. But I am wondering if there is a book (Or books)
out there that are of the same caliber as the “Windows Internals” book, which
cover the .NET CLR. I’m looking for something that gets down to the real
nitty gritty and goes into the internals of the CLR and how it works.

The only book I have see out there that appears to do this is “CLR via C#”
by Jeffrey Richter. I have not actually read it but reviews seem to indicate
this.

Any thoughts?

TIA,

One of my favorites is "customizing the .NET CLR runtime". It deals more
with hosting the CLR in the SQL Server 2005 manner, but it covers things
profound. It is right in there with Essential .NET, CLR via C# (as you
mentioned), and Advanced .NET Programming (the only Wrox book I ever liked).
Otherwise, it is rather difficult to find a truly useful .NET book that
isn't just another mee-too.



Thanks,
