The best Delphi book available!

Most Delphi book treat COM-Based Technologies lightly. This book doesn't. For advanced COM programming this book is a must. Not for beginners.

database developers should read this book

There is enough material for teaching c/s, tiered applications, sql information and many titles that imply database developing. Sure there are lots of things for non-database developing...

The BEST

This is the best book out there on Delphi 4. Delphi has always been my favorite development environment, it is better and more powerful than Visual Basic 6 (Though I use both and VC++ 6). If you are a total beginner then you should think of getting "Teach Yourself Delphi 4 in 21 days" simultaneously along with this book. I was able to create moderate Delphi apps within two months of doing so. Delphi has a steeper learning curve as compared to Visual Basic but it's worth it...Khurram Zaveri

Best book ever read

I've tried begining Delphi 2, 3, so far, this book tells you all secrets you want. Clear information about Midas and Corba issues.

Best Delphi Book I have ever read.

I train an introductory course in Delphi 4, and this is the book I recommend to the attendees. This book's scope is from Object Pascal to component writing, which gives us a wide base of information. I also believe that it is one of the most "readable" programming books I have ever read. I recommended this book to one of my friends and a week later I heard her telling someone else that it is the best programming book she has bought. One site had 3 different Delphi Books on site to choose from, and bought 9 copies of Delphi 4 Developer's Guide! Thanks Xavier and Steve!
