Add sliders to the page

Object Binding

Create a model class defining a few properties, e.g. a Book class with Title and Publisher properties - you can create your own types as well
Create a service that returns one instance of the previously created model type
Use the ObjectDataProvider to instantiate the service and invoke the method
Create TextBox controls that bind to properties of the model type
Modify the application to use a DataContext assigned from code instead of using the ObjectDataProvider
Add a Button with an event handler that shows the instance values from code - does the object update when it is changed from the UI? What needs to be changed to update or not update the instance from the UI?
