2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it!, February 19, 1997

By A Customer

I bought this book and regretted it. It does covers a wide variety of topics but does so it such a cursory and superficial manner that I can't imagine what you could possibly learn from it that you can't from just reading the manuals. The book is aimed towards new to casual user, but even the novice is better off going with the manuals, then moving on to a more advanced book later on.

1.0 out of 5 stars Discover briefly the what but nothing else, July 5, 1998

By A Customer

This book is a replicate of the on-line help. The cover states: " discover the what, why, and how ..." but there is strictly nothing consistent about the how that could make a reader understand about the "why". In the end, the beginner will hardly understand about the "what" too. A primary subject like Ole automation is vaguely commented. The purpose of this book is anything else than teaching something.

2.0 out of 5 stars Borland's Official No-"EXAMPLE" Guide to Delphi 2, October 3, 1997

By A Customer

I borrowed this book from a friend, and found it to be very brief and I couldn't even find any useful example on how to build a simple project/application. It covers a wide variety of topics, but it is almost imposssible for a beginner to relate those ideas together in order to start building their very first simple delphi application !
