Is there a book for learning MVVM and WPF at the same time?

Question

I am trying to learn MVVM and WPF, but most WPF books seem to teach you how write your software the wrong way.

So is there a WPF and uses MVVM for its examples?

Answer 1

Tim Heuer just had a blog post recommending this book, "Advanced MVVM" by Josh Smith. It assumes prior knowledge of WPF, but apparently does a great job of teaching the MVVM pattern from that perspective. Maybe not exactly what you're looking for, but might be of some help?

Answer 2

Josh Smith, one of the "pioneers" of MVVM, recently published a book about it: Advanced MVVM

However, this book assumes that you already know WPF, and other books about WPF don't teach you MVVM... So I don't think there's any book that fits your bill right now
