Good course material to leverage your understanding of C++

First, I will admit as others already have, there are many typo errors in the book. However, when you spend the time reading carefully and analyzing the source code provided in the projects, there is one advantage to this -- you say to yourself, "That's not right!" Yet, as you progress through the chapters, with the latter in mind, ironically it may help you learn better. Call it, "book debugging" if you will. This material has provided me with a solid understanding of Visual C++, especially with the inclusion of examples at the end of each chapter. Without the examples, it is conceivable that a student would be lost with this book. By completing the examples in full, as a student you will find the knowledge will begin to pour into your mind. I have experienced this with this book. For those who disregard the validity of this book, you have made key points. This book is not for everyone, but I have found it to be an excellent teaching source. Mind you, coupled with an Internet search engine, it makes things so much easier when learning Visual C++!

Good book for what it tries to be.

I am a student of C++ and have an entire shelf of 1100 page C++ books w/cd's. Gosselin's book is not one of them. This text book is 640 pages and does not come with CD. For a while, I had mixed thoughts on this book but now feel it has a particular focus and is quite good at that focus. C++ is a 3-dimensional morass of subjects and related subjects. Book authors can get lost trying to write a be-all, do-all book. Gosselin has picked a reasonable path through the maze and instructs on the path subjects well. I am only familiar with the material up to Chapter 6 ( 1. intro to the VC++ compiler, 2. C++ Basics, 3. Operators & Control Structures, 4. Memory Management & Classes, 5. Object Manipulation (more class work), and 6. Inheritance.) Gosellin's instruction seems to be excellent on the subjects he picked. The subjects in the remaining 6 chapters seem to be logical; an intro on the Win32 API, MFC, Database connections and forth. I have found this book useful and recommend it.
