This book is a complete waste of time. Both for O'Reilly and a reader.


It's not possible to learn REAL C++ with books like this.


Examples and discussions are oversimplified.


Book full of typos and mistakes.


Don't trash your time and money - buy a Stroustrup and "Gang of four" book. There is NO other ways of learning C++ - "no silver bullet", no "21 days" hype.


I'm greatly disappointed with this release of O'Reilly.
