| Comments |
This book is especially written for the novice user, or for someone who wants to get an idea (overview and introduction) what Delphi is like *before* even buying the product.
The book is based on "what, why and how" information for a list of 47 topics (each topic has its own chapter).
A lot of breadth, but less depth, since no chapter is more than 15 pages (average of 7).
This will leave all but the beginning Delphi user often hunger for more information, and you should at least be prepared to buy another (advanced) Delphi 2 book for more in-depth information...
