I seem to remember in an early edition of that book some errors in the  
text, though I am sure they must have been corrected in later editions.

Some very good books are:

- Accelerated C++: Practical Programming by Example, by Andrew Koening  
and Barbara Moo
This is an introductory text

- C++ Primer, by Stanley Lippman
Don't let the title fool you -- it is for experienced programmers who  
want to learn C++.  It is not for those just learning programming.  Be  
aware that there is a book called C++ Primer Plus, which is not nearly  
as good as the Lippman book.

- The C++ Programming Language, by Bjarne Stroustrup
This is not an easy book to read, but it is directly from the guy who  
invented all this trouble for the rest of us :).

- The C++ Standard Library: A Tutorial and Reference, by Nicolai  
Josuttis.
Considered the definitive book for STL

- Anything by Scott Meyers.

- Someone also mentioned the printed FAQ from comp.lang.c++.  This  
edition has more material that the online versions.

There, we have set down your next three years of learning for you, but  
after it you will have a good grasp of the language, making you vastly  
more valuable in the job market -- and you haven't even tou hed Qt, yet.
