Excellent Delphi book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This is an excellent Delphi learning & reference manual. I am finding it to be a great asset to my programming books.
good to be mastered - if you read it careful

a good book for the newcomer and better trained. I have bought it some weeks before and have it beside my projects laying on the table. It is over the whole themes and into the deep of borlands evergreen compiler a good help in my opinion. I don't have to regret my purchase - think so. My own projects do profit from it. My last project was to make some control for a radio pll program and I think some hints from this book came me to the right time :-) Look to my project at http://www.peter-geisler.de if you want. I have some older books beginning from delphi 2 then delphi 5 and 6. OOP is now in version 7 the rule. To learn OOP but you have to read one or some more other books too, I suppose.
Best overall Delphi Book Available

This is the best general purpose Delphi Book on the Market. Mr. Cantu again shows that he knows Delphi as he continues this series of books.Ignore what adiv says; every review he writes is negative. If you are serious about Delphi programming you need this book!
It's still the best Delphi book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
It's right that it's not for a complete new comer, it's somewhat based on its previous versions. Because there's not a lot of Delphi books(not like C#... so many of them) for Delphi developers, it's still a very good book you can get for Delphi, it gives readers basic introductions to the new features of Delphi7... very concise introductions, as well as some "old" features but author wanted to highlight.
Best book for tipical programmer
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Maybe Cantu's books are not the top level in technical details but they are the easier to read and understand. There are no easy tricks to inflate page number here. The examples are often useful but in the book you can find only code that matter, while in the companion cd you can find not only all the code but also the binaries.All the chapters are in topic and there are no help duplicates (if you know what I mean).There is a good coverage of Linux stuff like Xwindow, Qt primitives, RPC and an example about commanding Kde with Xml.Databases are covered pretty well, expecially Interbase, and so the other "Delphi" parts.In my opinion the only real lack is a chapter about MySql usage.
