While Stroustrup's book is good, for someone with no OO background wanting to get your feet wet in C++, I recommend Bruce Eckel's Thinking in C++. This book is available on line, from www.mindview.net. Eckel's approach is much less terse, and brings you through the concepts very well. It is a good teaching book as well as a good reference. And you can't beat the price. -ronc
