4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but only for complete begginers, 12 Sep 1999
By A Customer
I found this book of great use to me, but it is limited, and probably only of use if you are a complete begginer, once you have mastered whats in this book, you really need a more advanced one to go farther.

This book only covers the basics of writing programs in delphi, but it does go into some detail, and it is well written with plenty of anecdotes and well explained examples.It also touches on things like structured programming, but its a great book if you are a complete novice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hey! It is good for start!, 3 Dec 1998
By A Customer
Well, maybe this book is not for professionals, but it's wonderful for beginners! It's easy to teach object-oriented programming with it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for beginners to small companies, 5 Sep 1998
By A Customer
This book provides a personal and hands-on approach to Delphi that very other people could manage. It is informtive and gets you working straight away, no long tedious introductions for the techhie. But a cover disk would have been helpful for the blocks of code.

1.0 out of 5 stars Still a dummy!
This book really teaches nothing. All it does is tell you how to draw components on the form and nothing else really. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars A fairly good book ruined by poor editing & no example disk
This book is full or errors; most are typos or text from a prevoous edition not updated but a few are real stoppers for any beginner let alone a dummy. Read more
