5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for the beginner.
This book is really great for the beginner. You can actually pick it up and just read it from cover to cover, all 1000+ pages of it. It has great exercises and chapter notes at the end of each chapter. I highly recommend this book to anyone learning C++ on their own. This book has helped me immensely.

1.0 out of 5 stars Is there a no star choice?
These labs were the epitome of drudgery. This book did not give you the resources to complete the excercises and I had to buy another text (C++ How To Program by Deitel and Deitel) just so I could complete the labs. Steer clear, unless you have to use this book in your CS class, of course.

3.0 out of 5 stars It helps to have the companion book., June 1, 2000
By 
Stephen N. Forrest (Baltimore, Maryland) - See all my reviews
In response to the review by rfraley, this book is intended as a companion to _Programming and Problem Solving with C++_ (2 ed.) by Dale, Weems, and Headington. The Lab Course book by itself may seem incomplete.

I have not yet worked with the Lab Course book, but I am using the P&PSw/C++ book in a Master's level programming course.
