4.0 out of 5 stars If you only buy one Delphi 4 book, this is the one!, 7 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This is the most comprehensive and useful book on Delphi 4 programming that I have come across (and I've browsed ALL the books on D4 that Amazon list).

The only reason I do not rate it at 5 stars is the fact that the code in the book is not included on a CD-ROM; you have to download it from the web. Give me a CD any day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Marco Cantù did it again: Mastering Delphi 4 is very good., 26 Sep 1998
By A Customer
Mastering Delphi 4 is the bestselling mega-book written by Marco Cantù. I can fully recommend this book for all Delphi users, ranging from beginning to advanced. Actually, I just received a review copy of Mastering Delphi 4, and one of the things that I noticed is that Marco has removed some of the "beginning" material from his book, replacing it with more advanced and new material. So, it looks like Mastering Delphi 4 is now aiming a little bit higher compared to the previous editions (although Delphi Developer's Handbook is still Marco's masterpiece for really advanced Delphi programmers).

Mastering Delphi 4 does not include a CD-ROM (so all pages are actually printed), but the source code can be downloaded from the web.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ultra Comprehensive (and very heavy hehe), 25 Feb 2001
By A Customer
Wow, this book really deserves it's title! As I was reading this book cover to cover (took me months!) I was amazed how comprehensive it is. I would finish on how to make those two sized dialog boxes and then onto a section on Wizard Interfaces "Wow this book has everything!"

This book really is Mastering Delphi 4 and I would recommend this book to anyone who is learning Delphi. Fantastic!
