Rating: - Totally unstructured !
You will never be able to find anything useful in this book, it's totally unstructured ! The index in the end of this book is a joke !
Rating: - Rambling and unorganized
Calvert's D2 has its useful side, but it contains too much chaf. Given the numerous repetitions, references to useless subjects, and not altogether focused handling of the material one could say that these 1400 pages could have been condensed to 500.

Rating: - Excellent depth. Very little useful DB info.
This book is quite marvelous. The details covered are

My two problems with this book are:
1. Very little discussion of C/S Database programming.
There is some discussion of Paradox, but I believe most
users of D. are doing major projects with SQL Server, Infx.,
etc.
2. The coverage of exception handling, though thorough,
leaves much to be desired. I have read Using Delphi 2
(by Special edition), and found it on par. So I haven't ... Read More
