Thorough review of C++ syntax and OOP concepts, making book accessible for programmers at various levels. The book also gives readers a firm grasp of key concepts and allows programmers experienced in another language to adjust easily. A solid foundation in building and using abstract data types is also provided, along with an assortment of advanced topics such as B-trees for project building and graphs. This book is designed for novice programmers who have learned the concepts of objects and classes and want to move on to the data structures topics of recursion and data abstraction.

This is a perfectly fine book for explaining the basics of data structures. It covers all of the standard examples and does so well.

I'm not sure how I'd differentiate it from every other similar book but it's perfectly fine for what it is.

Great intro book, well explained with thorough explanations and provoking examples. I'm just not a huge fan of C and this book stops short of really getting into the OO aspects of C++
