Summary: If you want to learn GLpro, this is the book for you.
Review: If you are new to GLpro but don't know how to begin (which was pretty much my situation a year ago), I would recommend this book without hesitation. Dick Brandt assumes no prior knowledge, and begins with very easy examples that put the reader at ease. In his down-to-earth style, he takes the reader on a very thorough (and enjoyable) tour of the territory. In fact, having read the book, I now feel that I have a pretty fair command of a very powerful language. The book comes with a CD-ROM, which contains its own version of GLpro, all the sample scripts from the hundreds of examples in the book, and some clever utility programs that the author has written (and which you will end up using over and over again). These support materials are a very nice complement to the book. GLpro is a deep and and dynamic language and I am glad that someone as knowledgable and as thorough as Dick Brandt took on the job of presenting it in such a clear way. In short, this book fills an important niche and does it beautifully.

Summary: Dick Brandt's "Foundations" - a must for all new GLPro users
Review: When GMedia, the publishers of GLPro, released their version 7 in August 1997 a small and concise printed manual accompanied the software. This was intended to provide an overview of the many features of this amazing software package. However, the broad scope of the product called for a manual that would cover many of the questions that a new or intermediate user might ask. Dick Brandt has met this requirement with his "Foundations" book. I purchased it when it appeared and have returned to it for information, methods and code on almost every GLPro project since August 1997. Like the online GLPro listserv support this book should be on a GLPro user's list of helpers. If you are new to GMedia's GLPro get it! John Rankin Seattle WA.
