Unfortunately, there are lots of terrible C++ books out there.
The standard library has opened up lots of new doors that most
of the books simply ignore, which means that a lot of programmers
don't even know that they exist.

I don't want to start a C++ discussion on comp.lang.python,
but I'll be glad to continue this discussion on comp.lang.c++
if you like.
