It has been in the development of Delphi for three years, and it is also inferior to a lot of books in this area. The overall feeling is that the authors of the boutique book written, and the original works of the domestic author are still very informed of the whole. Of course, it is not deny that the authors of the boutique, like Li Wei, like Jiang Tao; but also recognizes that many works (original and translation) are really a strong, such as Xu Mou's work, such as XX Publishing House), misunderstood ! These quality, poor books, full of books, can't say that it is a big sorrow in the publishing world!
In fact, using Delphi to do software development, often does not focus on Delphi's development tool itself, because there is a considerable part of the technical problem not from the development tool, but from the system platform. Delphi's most common running platform is Windows, which is incorporated herein by reference. To truly use Delphi to do development work, it is essential for the awareness and understanding of the Windows operating system.
Therefore, although the following recommended books is a monographs developed by Delphi, more or less have some elaboration of the operating system. This is also a point I want to emphasize: I can't just pay attention to development tools, but also pay attention to the system platform. A more profound understanding system platform, there is only benefits for development work, there is no harm.
1. "Delphi 2 program design"
This is my first book to recommend. This is a boutique in the boutique. If there is no hand, you can see it in the bookstore, please don't buy it with the money. Unfortunately, this book is written by non-critics.
I can recommend such a book to you, indicating that I am not a person who likes the trend. Good book is a good book, no matter how Delphi is now 6.0 or a higher version, I still insist on recommending you. The author of the book is Charles Calvert, published "Turbo Pascal 101", "TEACH YOURSELF Windows Programming In 21 Days". From the name of these books, it is entry level, but please don't think small as the strength of the person. The book that can be written to the door is not a point of the author. It is just entry level or a little bit, but the author has a clear ability to express some of the complex concepts, and this ability is right. These concepts can be obtained on the basis of understanding.
The book is divided into 8 parts, which are Object Pascal, Win32, Windows API, Database, Object (and Components), OLE and COM, Multimedia and Games, Internet, etc. Almost cover all aspects of Delphi can touch. The explanation of Object Pascal is especially exciting for the Message of Win32 and Windows APIs and the object part. Whether you are a master or a low hand, I read this book, and I will benefit a lot.

Recommendation: ☆☆☆☆☆ 2. "Delphi 5 Developer Guide"
This is the recommended book for Borland. It is important to see it, this is definitely a good book. I have some regrets, why is I so late? The feature of this book is that it is definitely a developer's book. It not only tells the technical issues of all aspects, but also provides a code standard document. Because it is Borland's book, whether in Object Pascal, or based on component development, whether it is for Windows APIs or for database technology, they are profound. All in all, give people a famous amenities. (I don't know if it is a psychological role? I will win it again!)
