Title: Excellent book for very patient beginners
Review: I have bought and read numerous C++ books, and this one is definetly one of the best ones out there. It really does start from scratch, building all the way up from "Hello, World" to some pretty advanced topics, such as MFC and ATL. However, it does take things slowly, so you might consider getting a supplemental book, such as Deitel & Deitel's "C++ How to Program." Often times I found myself being so bored, that I has to read that lesson over and over again. So any other textbook-like book will help to get thru things faster and more efficently. Ivan Horton is a great teacher, and why then learn from anyone else?
