The Macintosh Programming Primer is especially helpfull for making your Pascal programs shine with that certain "Mac" look. It goes into detail about how to do everything from Dialog Boxes in ResEdit to how to incorporate asynchronous sound into your program. It's saved my butt a few times on major high school products, and MUCH easier to read than THINK reference, or Inside Mac. The only short coming to this book is that it is a bit out of date.
