Programming and Problem Solving with Delphi

Rating:
Summary: East US
Review: I agree with the previous reviewers. The book is helpful with developing a basic understanding of Delphi, but it is overpriced compared to other Delphi books on the market.

Rating:
Summary: Very Good for the novice, but [pricey]
Review: Programming and Problem Solving with Delphi is clearly laid out and provides good information for people new to Delphi. As a self-trained programmer migrating from Visual Basic to Delphi I found it quite useful, but I question its value to experienced Delphi campaigners. I also cannot work out why it's so [pricey].

Summary: Excellent book
Review: This book [was expensive to me] because it is a textbook, and as we all know, there's no getting around the price of a textbook. I'm not currently attending class, but purchased this book anyway. I found it extremely well laid out, very descriptive, and informative. I went from knowing very little about Delphi, to knowing quite a bit. This book has all the little bits of information the less formal books leave out. A great book! If I had one complaint, it was of the lack of attention to some of the higher programming skills, chapters like DDE were very short indeed, but gave you enough to know what they did. This is a beginners book, make no mistake. If you're just learning Delphi, it's great. I believe this was made with Delphi 5, but there are so few differences, you'll never notice.

Summary: Excellent book
Review: Very well laid out and explained. The high price is probably because delphi 5 is included.
Would recommend to everyone.
