Read the prerequisites!

I'm guessing this is something that most of the reviewers who were critical of this book, didn't do before purchasing it. Yes you need to know C for this book and that is clearly stated in the prerequisites. But any book that tries to teach you C++ without prior knowledge of C is only lying to you (It's called C++ not D as in it's an addition onto C). If you try to learn C++ first you will only end up with a VERY superficial...

Very understandable, ignore bad ratings (im 13)

Ok first off forget the negative reviews, this book is quite understandable. Secondly, forget the reviews about this being a book that u need to know c to understand. In this issue, the 4th edition, u do not need to know c, that was in the previous editions. The author states that in this book. So if ur a new-b go pick it up. Im 13, although and honor student, and it was quite easy to understand. I have made a few small programs...

No C knowledge required...

Ok, i bought some book on Visual C++, but realized i needed to know C++ first. So i bought this book, and wasnt disappointed. The author overall does a very good job of explaining C++. The author even says at the start of the book, previous editions off C++ for Dummies requried knowing C, but this one DOESNT. I dont know what the hell the people who said he states u must know C were on. And he backs those words up.....

Great Intro to C++ but DEFINITELY not for dummies

This is one of the best C++ for beginners books I have ever read. It is for technical people who have programmed in other languages but want to get their feet wet with C++ and object-oriented programming. It does assume some level of C language knowledge. Most C++ books I've found dive right into the hard-core stuff but this book was well-paced and didn't try to go too fast. This is definitely not for a non-technical...
