This book certainly lives up to its name. This book is suitable for people who have never developed in C++ previously and would like to get up to speed on how to do it and still understand core concepts.

However, as this is a beginner's book, its likely not satisfy the burning desire to know even more and i recommend readers to get 2 books, namely:

1) C++ Primer (4th Edition) by Stanley B. Lippman
2) Inside the C++ object model by Stanley B. Lippman

The "C++ Primer" is really for hard-core developers and "Inside the C++ object model" offers a look into the "behind the scenes" but there are content that overlaps "C++ Primer".
