2.0 out of 5 stars More is less, 19 Dec 2002
I came to this book with a solid knowledge of C++ hoping to find a book that would explain the specifics of Windows programming. This book does not fit that bill.

This is an introduction to C++ programming using Visual C++. Actual Windows programming topics do not appear until chapter 20.

.NET topics are completely missing (unless you count the last chapter giving a toy example of web forms).

I have trouble understanding what several chapters on C# are doing in a book on C++, and an appendix detailing DOS interrupt services is irrelevant in this book (and not referred to in the text).

For my purposes this book was a failed investment. If you are looking for an introductory book to programming, this book might fit the bill, but it is not intended for experienced programmers.

If you know C++ and want to know more of Windows programming, Archer and Whitechapel is a better choice (Visual C++ .NET Bible, Wiley Publishing). For technical information on the Win32 platform I suppose Charles Petzold is still the most solid choice.

1.0 out of 5 stars Irritating in the extreme, 30 Oct 2004
By Mr. J. R. King "johnk42" (Cleethorpes, N Lincs United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The book constantly obtrudes irrelevances. It drops in examples of c# code. WHY? If I wanted to learn C# I wouldn't have bought this book! Trying to learn c++ from this book has left me in a state of irritated frustration.
