John Skeet's "C# In Depth" series presents how the language changes from one version to the next with code examples.

C# In Depth is indeed a good read. Unfortunately, the C# language is getting more and more complex, especially when you compare it to Java.

Sure, but it's backward compatible too. You can write C# 4 style code while in the latest version of .net/visual studio.

Java is catching up, and what appears easy at the language level, gets extra knobs at the runtime and lower APIs.
