Average Rating: 
Rating:  - The best. Period.
This book is certainly not for beginners. But if you can read and understand this book, you can become one of the elite Windows programmers.
The material starts out with the assumption that you understand Delphi, Pascal, and object oriented programming. Each chapter grows progressively more complex, and explains the inner workings of the Delphi IDE itself, as written in Delphi.
This is THE book to own for any serious Delphi developer.
Rating: - Not for Beginners, but superb for experienced programmers
After browsing through countless books that introduce me to Delphi basics, it is refreshing to find a book that dives right into some real hard-core programming. This book is not for beginners, but is indispensible for experienced Delphi programmers who are looking to improve their skills. This is, without a doubt, the best and most useful Delphi book I have ever read.
Rating: - Excellent, 6 stars out of 5 - need I say more...
If you are a serious Delphi developer who wants to work smarter instead of harder this book is essential reading. It shows you loads of really neat tricks and ideas which are not available in any other books on the markert. Some of the examples are a bit raw, but the underlying concepts can be converted into successful commercial products.
Rating: - Excellent!
John Lam is like aspirin for all of my COM headaches - well done!
Rating: - Excellent coverage of Delphi I have not seen in other books.
Certainly not for the entry level but probably the most insightful Delphi book I have purchased. Advanced everything! The first 4 chapters are the best. Class references, casting, "Fake" casting. Excellent reference for the RTTI (an ablsolute neccessity for Components and Com). Excellent reference for messages and how Dephi handles them, and how you can handle them. Excellent reference on OOP implemented in Delphi (finding classes, components; Owning, parenting; Creating, Destroying). Many ... Read More
