Title: Not For Beginners
Product review: This book is very comprehensive in its coverage of c++. The author states that their goal for this text is to 'provide a C++ reference book, a tutorial for C++ beginners, and an advanced book--all in one. My experience trying to learn C++ from this book has been one of utter frustration. The authors have a habit of using concepts covered hundreds of pages later in the beginning programs. The explanations are complete and thorough if you already have a handle on all the concepts but I would never give this book to a beginner.
