The content is excellent and very well organized. The writing is relatively clear and fluid. But if I had to make a small gripe is that it is sometimes difficult to access. For learning "from scratch" in C ++, this book is a little difficult. However once mastered the key concepts, it is a fairly meaty reference and more readable than the standard. The book is rather unsuitable for a player without programming experience.
Last little flat, I would have liked to see a little more humorous lines (a bit like Knuth). To advise anyone with some basic C ++ and want to broaden their knowledge.
