Win 95 API book for Delphi programmer

Hi,

Can anyone suggest a good reference book detailing the Win 95 API
(functions, parameters, _short_ description, etc...)? I currently use
the Waite Group's 'Windows API Bible' for Win3.xx stuff, but need an
update now for 95. Is their 95 version as good as the old one (my copy
of the 3.xx book is very well-thumbed!)?

I'm sorry if this seems to be posted in the wrong group, but I program
almost exclusively in Delphi these days, and don't really look at other
newsgroups very often.

TIA

Yes it is good, and it is only volume 1 of 3! Volume 2 is now in stores
as well. I suggest getting at least volume 1 of the Waite Group Win95
Win32 API Bible.
