C++ book reviews

[mycuser]

Hello everyone.
That's what I miss the most in my web surfing.
There are quite a few threads about good books to read, all aver this forum.
Some of the posters here have been quite vocal on my choice of material :
ie. "should be thown in the garbage".
Other posters have been "golden".

Official schooling apart, reading books and surfing the net is the way to go.

Some links to posts on C++ tutorials would be appreciated.
For me, as a C++ "dabbler", this would be a great help.
TIA
PS maybe a thread on book reviews Hint Hint

Thanks FurryGuy,
your reply saved me time tracking down the relevant cplusplus.com links.

Google comes up with a lot of Commercial vendor links, where the reviews are not really descriptive.
I am mainly looking to buy books that are not in the "must be thrown in the garbage" category.

My library will grow and on this site I get a lot of the "how-to" but not too much "why".

I suspect learning the philosophy of C++ is an on-going process.

Do understand that as each new standard is set (C++98, C++03, C++11, etc.) books and online resources will take time to catch up.

Most books are barely using C++11. I have had a hard time trying to find decent C++14/17 resources (other than cppreference, it can be rather arcane and dense) with usage examples.

I am mainly looking to buy books that are not in the "must be thrown in the garbage" category.

But realize that most programming books age into that "must be thrown in the garbage" category, sometimes all too soon.

Hello all,
I get the idea as I review all reponses that I need ( more than books ) some mentoring by
> knowledgable < people.
My current hardcover was printed in 2017, when was it actually finished writing ?

So all of you, many thanks.
