Here’s my personal (subjective and selective) short-list of must-read C++ morality guides, alphabetically by author: • Cline, Lomow, and Girou, C++ FAQs, Second Edition, 587 pgs, Addison-Wesley, 1999, ISBN 0-201-30983-1. Covers around 500 topics in a FAQ-like Q&A format. • Meyers, Effective C++, Second Edition, 224 pgs, Addison-Wesley, 1998, ISBN 0-201-92488-9. Covers 50 topics in a short essay format. • Meyers, More Effective C++, 336 pgs, Addison-Wesley, 1996, ISBN 0-201-63371-X. Covers 35 topics in a short essay format. Similarities: All three books are extensively illustrated with code examples. All three are excellent, insightful, useful, gold plated books. All three have excellent sales records. Differences: Cline/Lomow/Girou’s examples are complete, working programs rather than code fragments or standalone classes. Meyers contains numerous line-drawings that illustrate the points.
