Rating:  Summary: A very useful book Review: This is a book that each Delphi coder must have in his collection. The book covers all the most important feature of object pascal, thread, interfaces and so on... You must buy it if u need of a reference boook.Delphi Newbie keep away.
Rating:  Summary: Good book, shame about the binding. Review: This is a useful book that provides a good reference to Object Pascal as well as the System unit. The problem I have with it is that my copy and that of my colleague completely broke off. The publisher should pay better attention to the production of this book. I have managed to glue it back on.
Rating:  Summary: The first Delphi book really worth having Review: This is one of the _very_ few Delphi books not offending your intelligence. It has a scope narrower than all other Delphi books on the market: it deals with the Delphi Pascal language itself, and with its standard library, NOT with the Visual Components Library and Windows programming. This is, however, an advantage. There are many books on VCL, but none (until now, that is) on the language itself, at least in any reasonable depth and detail. In the past five years I've checked almost all Delphi books on the market, and bought many of them. About two years ago, while still buying, I stopped reading them. This one is different: it's a keeper.
