Object-Oriented Programming Power for THINK Pascal Programmers is a book by Chuck Sphar in Microsoft Press's Macintosh Programming Series, published by Microsoft Press, Redmond, Washington, © 1991, ISBN 1-55615-348-1, Library of Congress card number 91-16715. It was sold with a disk, whose Microsoft licence agreement is printed at the back. The text and index are numbered to p. 680; the scan has 685 PDF pages.[1]

The book teaches object-oriented programming in Object Pascal to THINK Pascal programmers. Part 1 introduces the concepts and ends with three reference chapters, including "Inside Object Pascal" on how compilers implement objects, inheritance and runtime binding. Part 2 builds PicoApp, a small application framework modelled on Apple's MacApp and Symantec's THINK Class Library, and uses it for a dice game. Part 3 builds reusable list and search-tree components.[1]
