As a relative newbie, it's hard for me to find Delphi books I really like. As an educator, I've found better books on the Java shelves of bookstores than the Delphi shelf. So, to better understand the world of OOP, I'm going to try using the Java bookshelf. I've found a couple books that I think are well done (Beginning Java Objects and Head First Java, which take rather different educational approaches). I know that Delphi's object model and Java's are quite similar, with the only major difference (for someone at my level) being that Java offers garbage collection & Delphi programmers must free objects themselves. I'm wondering if there are other things I should be aware of or otherwise thinking about when reading a Java book and trying to translate it to Delphi?
