The examples/code alone are worth the cost of the book many times over. I refer to the chapter on Operator Overloading constantly. Declan O'Kane, Leicester, Englandįor my second-level C++ course, "Thinking in C++" is my constant reference and companion, and I urge my students to consult it regularly. On this score you are certainly one of my top three technical writers.
My experience is that a good author is one who makes difficult concepts accessible, a great one makes it look almost easy. Naval Research Laboratory, Washington DC As an Internal Medicine Specialist and Computer Scientist I spend a great deal of time trying to extract information from books and journals. Raymond Pickles, Antenna Section, Radar Division, U.S. I feel like you give a good overview and then explain the nuts and bolts. Your book is really a treasure trove of C++ knowledge. I think this section should be a mandatory part of any introductory class after the first one or two programming problems. Tiwari, Mumbai, India … the "Debugging Hints" section is so valuable, I'm tempted to print it and keep it with me at all times. Each of these books is easily the best in its category. Riccardo Tarli -SW Engineer -R&D TXT Ingegneria Informatica -Italy I have been reading both of your books, Thinking In Java and Thinking In C++. Barry Wallin, Math/Computer Science Teacher, Rosemount High School, Rosemount, MN I would like to thank you for your book "Thinking in C++" which is, with no doubt, the best book I ever read about this subject. :-} Randy Crawford, MRJ Technology Solutions, Fairfax VA Your work is greatly appreciated and I thank you for helping me understand both C++ and Java better. Either can be read in *less* than 21 days.
Don't be put off by the apparent large size of his books. Eckel's also the best technical writer I've read since Jeff Duntemann. His books are not just about writing in C++/Java, but understanding the intent of the languages and the mindset that goes with thinking in them. He's had the benefit of a GREAT deal of novice feedback, and the books reflect that. Please get it right so that we can all have an excellent and "reliable" reference work! And please hurry! We are desperate for a work of this quality! Steve Strickland, Live Minds (a Puzzle business) (On Usenet) Unlike most other C++ authors, Eckel has made a career of teaching C++ and Java classes ONLY.

Jeff Meininger, Software Developer, Your book is the best by far of any I've seen. I think your book is laid out very well, and explains things in an easy-to-understand fashion. a very nice experience to learn about both at once, hand-in-hand. I have compared it to others in the bookstore, and have found that your book actually teaches me basic C++ fundamentals while I learn the STL. Christian Gross, consultant/mentor I think your book is very, very, VERY good. On my bookshelf, it will definitely be one of the necessary books, right beside Petzold. And then you questioned the sanity of the situation and what would be the problem areas. Your approach is one from a person who has actually sat down and went through the material in detail. You covered topics that nobody has properly covered before. As an author I AM IMPRESSED at your writing and explanation skills. What you did was what I expected of the C++ community, the next generation of C++ authors.
MINDVIEW TRIAL CRASHING HOW TO
What you did was show how to write C++ with templates and STL without bogging down with details. Then I decided to read your material and I was amazed.
I have been dying for a good template and STL book. Thomas Michel I have a whole mountain of books and none of them make sense nor do they explain things properly. "Thinking in C++" 2/E does not pass the buck to another book. Most books explain some topics thoroughly but are deficient in others. Peter Tran, Senior Systems Analyst (IM), Compaq Computer Corporation This book is the best general reference in my on-going quest to master C++. It has been my endeavor to improve my C++ skills whenever possible, and to that effect, "Thinking in C++" has given me the strong foundation for my continuous improvement. When I first started learning C++, your book "Thinking in C++" was my shining guide light in a dark tunnel.
