I've just downloaded the starter edition of Delphi 10.2.3 and I'm looking for recommended books on Delphi. Is "Delphi in a Nutshell" by Ray Lischner still relevant? It was published in 2000, so I'm wondering if it's too out-of-date to be useful. And where can I find the eBook edition of "Object Pascal Handbook" by Marco Cantù? It's supposed to be available for free, but when I click on the download button, I get "Not authorized" (even though I'm logged into the Embarcadero forum). Any other recommendations, besides the books published by Packt? (I'm not a big fan of their books, I think they're very poorly edited.)

  1. Delphi in a Nutshell is still a good introduction, but of course the IDE looks quite different now and there have been improvements in the language and tools.

  2. Eli M Yes, it does work! Don't know why I couldn't find it on their website. Thanks.

    Robert Lawrence Thanks! It's not the one I was looking for, but it looks useful too.

  3. When we leave, we do it. When we see, we do it. If we want something then we ask. And it will be light. Maybe F1 is a help, if you do not look at all these worlds that are just waiting for you. It's all there for you, you just have to grab it. But you have to do that. Have fun with the starter version.
