Success with C++

I read this book some time ago, but continue to use it as a reference. This book was written with the beginner in mind. Kris has a unique way of explaining the topic so that it is comprehendible for the entry-level C++ developer, but is not overly simplified as to cause an intermediate level developer to loose interest. This book is also excellent for procedure level programmers (such as strait C and Pascal programmers) wishing to make the jump to C++. That is a particularly hard market to please because the developer is an intermediate or advanced level developer, but may need an entry level C++ or OOP book in order to master the concepts of OOP. Most entry level C++ and OOP books tend to bore such developers, This book handles them in perfect stride.

This is a good book for the beginning C++ programmer. The book is well written, well organized. All the source code complies and if you work through all the source code, you'll have a good understanding of C++ after you finish.
