This review is from: C++ for Business Programmers (2nd Edition) (Paperback)

The text was easy to understand and came with numerous helpful items in the form of code snippets, example code, and exercises. The lesson objectives were clear and the associated activities were in alignment with those objectives. A very useful feature of the book were the "Notes" insets that are distributed throughout each chapter. These supplimental notes make the review of important concepts efficient. The chapter review section was lacking in definitions of key terms, however, it did a fairly good job of summarizing main concepts and terminology. I could only suggest one area of improvement to the text and that would be to have a companion CD containing the code examples. This minor addition would allow the reader to more quickly be able to experiment and learn without having to re-type code. Overall the book was very good, I would recommend it to anyone who is seeking to learn C++. This book can be informative whether the reader is experienced in programming concepts or not.
