The C++ Cookbook is a fine title, but the copy editing is pretty atrocious. Probably the most egregious example is the entire section on "Matricies" [sic]. That spelling appears over and over again-- in the table of contents, as the section header, in the body text of that section, and in the index. O'reilly is known for the quality of its work, but this is an unfortunate counter-example.
