Accelerated C++

Posted by Phil Aaronson at 11:31 AM

I'm spinning back up on C++, after a many years of not touching it. The last time I programmed in C++, there was no such thing as STL. Accelerated C++ by Koenig and Moo is far and away the best book I've found on learning the new C++ (when did C++ programming become more like programming in Java?) The only drawback, the book looks like it was typeset by someone with their feet.

Actually, if you check the first couple pages like I just did, the authors typeset the book themselves. Guys, what are you thinking? Why not let someone who knows how to typeset a book do it for you. Addison Wesley has many such people. Use them.
