The Waite Group's Object-Oriented Programming in C++ Review by Jahanzeb Farooq

Best C++ book for beginners

Perhaps the best introductory c++ book out there. (I said "perhaps" only because I have not read C++ Primer Plus by Stephen Prata.)
This was the course book for OOP in C++ course in my undergraduate studies. I really like Robert Lafore's writing style. He writes very close to the reader and answers questions as soon as they arise in reader's mind. He has done a great wrok, teaching fundamentals and advanced C++ topics to the new c++ programmers very efficeintly and in a friendly way.

A little negative point though is that there are number of errors there, specially with figures. However the new edition is out which has obvioulsy solved this problem.

One thing: this book is strictly for c++ beginners. For advanced programmers I would recommend C++ Primer by Stanley B. Lippman.
