Title: Don't confuse by the title!
Review: First of all, you have to forget the "24 hours" tale. Do you really expect to learn Visual C++ in 24 hours? No one can. To be honest, this is not a bad book, but it does require at least begin-intermediate C++ level.The first several chapters are just to help frersh your memory quickly, so you may want to skip it if you are really confident with C++. In the rest of the book, the author chooses a App-wizard approach, which can really help readers pick up Visual C++ within a relatively short period. The thing is you may also want to have another book for reference, like "Programming windows with MFC" by Jeff Prosise.
