I have reviewed and returned it.  It is garbage.  I do not recommend it.

The best book I have read on Object-oriented programming is Meyer's "Object-
oriented Software Construction".  Lippman is the best of the bunch for
C++, as it has the most coverage of 2.0 after AT&T's docs (not for 
bedtime reading).  Also check out Hansen's C++ Answer Book -- contains
code for Stroustrup's problems.  Very good code, too!  Avoid Eckel's book.
