What I appreciated the most in this book is not the number of chapters discussed or the details given in each chapter but rather the many new exercises added, ranging from quick tests of fundamental concepts to short programming assignments.
This comes principally from the fact that "It is actually by programming that we learn how to program!"

If you want to learn C++ this is not the book for you! The text covers much of the object-oriented approach to software engineering, but can be heavy reading. It offers little in the way of concise diagrams to hone the reader's interest, and packs in so much detail on the subject that most of the enormous tone can be ignored whilst still enabling the reader to gras the subject matter. (Which to be honest isn't riveting, but then we are talking about a specialist area of computers.) Not one of the better books on the subject, but the accompanying CD has enabled my programs to look better as it has a nice graphical developer application on it. Worse still, the price is ludicrously high and I would probably expect to pay only twenty pounds for it.

This text is one of the more confusing texts I've taught our introductory C++ courses from. While the Deitel/Deitel book is more encyclopedic, I've had students come back and say how much they enjoyed it and found it useful after the course was over. I've only had student complaints about this book. The approach is nice -- objects early and the EZWin graphics package -- but there aren't enough "small" examples or interesting examples to make the text worthwhile. Give me Deitel/Deitel any day.
