  The best and the most student friendly book in C++ is now on the market. If you want to learn C++ easily and quickly, read it. The book is "Object-Oriented C++ Primer" by Leon Poskar. Despite the fact that it has been published this year, it has sold thousands of copies. The book is written in a clear, easy to understand manner.   It gives a thorough treatment of C++ features inherited from C, such as: data presentation and data types, control statements, arrays, functions, structures, unions, character strings, pointers, operators, preprocessor directives, C style run-time allocation, C style input/ output, ANSI Standard Library. It goes in depth in describing C++ specific: classes, operator overloading, inheritance, polymorphism, virtual functions, function and class templates, exception throwing, function overloading, functions with default arguments, C++ style input/output, C++ style run-time allocation, iostream libary.
  Each theoretical concept in the book is illustrated by a runable example. Many examples have been tried on at least two compilers to insure the most portability of the code and generality of concepts. The book is based on ANSI (ISO) Standards for C and ANSI Standard Draft for C++. The text is good for anybody who wants to study C++. The book is good for programmers in all the platforms and environments (DOS, Windows 3..., 95, NT...), UNIX, Macintosh.
