Unfortunately, there are not too many C++Builder books in existence (though, there are several on Delphi). I don't even recall the most recent C++Builder book.
I own at least three C++Builder books, the latest one (BCB6 Dev. Guide) from 2002.
Thanks in advance for your votes.

Re: August 2012 Developer's Poll
I agree on the number of books for C++ Builder.
I believe that I own all books published about C++ Builder starting from HOWTO (first book I buy), all of the unleashed series and finally both of dev guide.
Maybe it is time for another book.

Re: August 2012 Developer's Poll
Yes, all my books are for BCB6 and older. Most of the info is still relevant, as far as I can tell. I would love have something that tells me about the new features and advancements in the newer versions besides just a press release. It took me some time and effort to track down info on Unicode, for example, and most of that was in Delphi.

Glancing at the bookshelf I immediately see seven third-party books in addition to the Borland manuals. The earliest CPB book is Charlie Calvert's 'Unleashed' for version 3. I also have a couple of Delphi books although I don't have a current copy of Delphi.
The most referenced of them all, by far, are 'C++ Builder How To' and (surprisingly ?) Tom Swan's 'Foundations of Delphi' which I bought before CPB had been born and is still useful in certain basic areas.
