Professional XML (Programmer to Programmer)

From this chapter, I hope you learned how committed Microsoft is to putting XML capabilities into its overall framework. XML use in the world will only continue to grow, and for this reason, Microsoft is working to make it easier and easier with each release to use XML data from end-to-end in your applications, workflow-processes, and more.

This chapter takes a good look at some of the more important XML capabilities provided in the .NET Framework 2.0, but this is just a scratch on the surface. This topic is really deserving of an entire book of its own.
