Your local library may contain good books for Delphi. Or maybe if you can find an eBook?

Ok this might be a stupid question But .... Is Delphi and Pascal the same thing? On the tuts I am reading I see them mention them both and in delphi some of the file extentions are .pas. Also bnetdocs has the const for .pas

So Yea are they the same thing?

Yes; I believe Delphi grew out of Turbo Pascal. I think Delphi is some kind of OO layer for Pascal (like C++ is to C).

Yes, it is. The two are so closely linked, though, that Delphi may as well == Object Pascal.
