C++ FAQs (2nd Edition) Review by James Bosch

Worth supporting, but not owning

I bought this because I'm a big fan of the online C++ FAQ Lite by the same author, and I was hoping for answers to a few of my own recurring questions that weren't addressed there.

They weren't addressed here either - instead of adding recommendations on how to solve OO design problems, it only seemed to contain repeated admonitions about how not to solve them (which were already present in the online FAQ), and a lot of preaching.

I kept it, because I wanted to support the excellent online version, which I will continue to use, but I'll rarely open the book again.
