Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Provides well structured description of C++
Review: Bjarne stroustrup provides a interesting approch to C++ features.... Read it if you want to write maintainable code or to improve your programming structures.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Definitely not for beginners!
Review:

This is a great book. No doubt about it. It is a must have for intermediate and advanced C++ programmers. This book gives great advice in the design and implementation of a C++ program. I also highly recommend this book for those who want to get into Stroustrups head and see how and why he developed this language.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you want to know C++, buy this book!!!
Review: This book is the most excellent source of information I have ever encounted on C++. From OOP to namespaces to the standard templat library, if it's in C++, it's in this book!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very good on C++, but not a good reference for STL
Review: As many readers noted before me, this book is not for beginners. However, for programmers who have experience in OO programming and C, this is a great book.

The only thing I miss is a complete and well-organised reference of the standard C++ library. Many aspects of the library are explained and illustrated with clear examples, but there is no clear and complete list of what the library contains - Stroustrup simply says "look at the header files to find out more"...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This one doesn't just sit on my shelf
Review: This is a great book. It doesn't just sit on my shelf like some books I have brought in the past. Being a Intermediate C++ programer, but still learning, I use this book alot when I have questions and to learn more about new areas. I recommend it highly to anyone who wants to learn more about C++.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: SIMPLY THE BEST
Review: I have read this book when I was a beginner in any computer language. Though it was dificult for me to understand it at once, because of its high style, I had learned more and more and more very quickly. This book is the best about that subject. The Father knows his child the best way and makes it familiar to us the way no one else could. Thank You for this book!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Comprehensive, concise, readable, and illuminating.
Review: This is /the/ book on C++ for readers at intermediate or advanced levels of programming experience. (Beginners should start with a better language for learning how to program - I recommend Scheme.)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Except you choose it as the first C++ book,that is the best!
Review: Have read a couple of C++ books before I got this one. Emmm.... it gives me kind of feeling that the author who created this language has much more euthusiasm than anyone else in writing a C++ book. Though the writing style is kind of boring in someone's eyes, yet if you really love this language, you can share that feeling with the Father of it. There are better cooks... but only the one who CREATed the food, really knows the taste!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: All in all, in one word, to me : EXCELLENCE !!!
Review: I am currently a programmer in the C language, where it was first thought that I should get a working knowledge of VB. It seems that everything will be ready in version 6 - but what about today, fellas ?? I was/am totally impressed with the C++ language, mainly because of my knowledge of C.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: serial book
Review: My impression from spending months with this book, using it as a guide for more obscure language features that I don't personally use (but others, whose code I support, do), is that it is a serial read. Many of the examples are built upon earlier chapters, and while it usually doesn't matter, I find myself going back again and again to try to figure things out (I don't have time to read it cover-to-cover). Luckily I kept my 2nd edition Stroustrup handy, and I use that instead fairly often. The index initially appears sparse and next-to-useless, but if it's not in the index, it's in the table of contents. I bought the first printing, which was my mistake; luckily the errata sheet is online. And to top it all off, the cover is really floppy, making it hard to hold anywhere but on a desk. But it looks good on my bookshelf.
