Summary: What I have seen is IMPRESSIVE
Review: As an instructor in the community-college system, I have students with wide-ranging abilities--from remedial to advanced. Though I haven't had time to study the whole book (yet), it has many good features, all of which I can't list. The most important to me is how the book proceeds. Though this book is exhaustive (i.e., covers each of its topics very thoroughly), it goes step-by-step to teach the basics of the programming process in an organized fashion. Such a progressive approach is MUCH better than a "here's EVERYTHING on one topic" approach (see any book by the Deitels); beginning students don't NEED to know the details. Any programming instructor who thinks about how he/she learned will recognize that he/she learned broad, general basics and only picked up the details through practice. Also, if you'll notice, Mr. Gaddis teaches at the community college level. Want a good C++ teacher? Go to somebody who teaches C++, NOT the Deitels. My apologies to Harvey and P.J., but their tripe has confused a whole generation of would-be programmers and I'm sick of seeing the so-untrue title "C++ How to Program." Mr. Gaddis' book is the BEST I've seen in years.

Review: Beginners using the linux operating system and compiling with gcc will not have a problem with the examples in this book. I like the fact that the author even explains how to compile programs under linux, which helped me out a lot, being a beginner myself.
