Review: Very good book for experienced C++ programmers - Although the structuring of the chapters is a bit chaotic and random, the language features and the reasoning behind them are laid out very well and detailed. As mentioned by others, this book is definitely not for beginners - it explains all what C++ is, just not in a very systematic and tutorial oriented manner. If you are looking just to catch up the newest C++11 and C++14 standards and nothing else, there might be better options - there are chapters devoted specifically to the new features introduced in the latest standards, but the book overall strives to present a unified, up-to-date vision of what the best coding practices in C++ are, with little historical context. There are some negative remarks in other reviews about the code coloring - surely we all like good coloring in our IDEs, but for a book I think it would be much more distracting to have multiple colors for code segments, not to mention - more expensive. Regarding the bookbinding quality - whatever issues were present, they were likely solved, because my hardcover edition feels really sturdy and well put. I also like the paper - thin, semi-glossy, which enables this 1350 page book to be rather compact for the content inside.
Review: Excellent Throughout. - I found even as an experienced developer, and C++ user, whenever a new language standard definition is released it takes a long time to bring ones way of thinking around to leverage the new language features to their best effect. That is until with C++11 and reading this tome, every little detail of the language is covered, allowing one to convert from old styles and patterns to new technology and new ways of thinking easily. Turning every other page one could find someone new to learn, for the seasoned of beginner, so long as you know how to use a C++ compiler going through this tome and some of it's examples is a real insight into not just how the language now stands, but how it has evolved. Coming straight from Bjarne too one finds reading the text almost akin to talking to him in person, he explains so clearly and concisely what he is aiming to do, never over stepping the bounds of the current chapter of section, but always referring you onto other topics. If you're an absolute beginner, or have never programmed in C++ before, this book is perhaps not for you, check out "A Tour of C++" which is a much more accessible companion to this book and also by Bjarne. Once you're happy with the Tour, then it is time for this, the main event, book to enter your development career. Excellent throughout.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant Book
*by S***E on 6 April 2024*

Bjarne Stroustrup is a brilliant author who explains accurately and concisely features of C++ other books just won't consider. C++ is powerful but not a very 'symmetric' language. Because of this, when you scratch below the atypical programming surface, you run into gotchas. This book clearly explains what can and cannot be done with the language. I think its very refreshing to have such a knowledgable book.
