Whether you are eager to get started writing your first C++ programs, or you are already using C++ and seeking deeper understanding, the authors' unique approach and expertise make "Accelerated C++" an indispensable addition to your library. It starts with the most useful concepts rather than the most primitive ones, describes real problems and solutions, not just language features: "You can begin writing programs immediately." It also combines the study of the Standard Library features.
The authors proved this approach in their professional-education course at Stanford University, where students learned how to write substantial programs on their first day in the classroom.
