I have the Developers Guide for D2,D4 and D6. D2 Guide was the most imformative. Since then the books have been only for newbies. For someone writing an application, the book doesn't do anything to help resolve a coding problem. The only help I have gotten from it was the usage of bookmarks. I have jumped into it a number of time, but came out everytime with a zero.
Rating: - Excellent book!
As I read through the pages in "Delphi 6 Developers Guide", I simply learned more than I expected (about Delphi 6). It compares with other programming languages, it has a CD included which contains All of the examples used in the book, and it covers everything you can do in Delphi 6.
Chapter 2 in the book gives you a nice review of the what you need to now to continue the book (I am happy that they included it); The Object Pascal Language.
In other words: I love the book, and ... Read More
Rating: - If you want to become a Delphi expert, read this.
Simply put, if you want to not only learn Delphi, but learn some professional development tricks that can take you a long time to learn on your own or you want to learn how to be a better Delphi developer, you have to read this book. If you just want to learn Delphi in-and-of-its-own, then the Borland developer's guide is enough.

Rating: - Well Rounded Title
This is an excellent book, covers the entire Delphi 6 product about as well as any single book could. The chapters on the COM related technologies are very helpful. The New Internet features of Delphi 6 are also given in depth treatment. If you do Delphi 6, this book should be within reach at all times.
Rating: - Borland should ship this instead of their Developer's Guide
I am only a third of the way through this huge tome; but my opinion is confirmed. This is the book that Borland should be shipping instead of their Developer's Guide. This covers much of the same information with clearer examples and much better organization. It even has the same cover colors!
This book is neither exciting or wonderful. But for intermediate to advanced software instruction it does a more than adequate job.
I took away a rating star for getting too densely into ... Read More
