    • A great book for beginners and intermediate programmers

      Beginning C++ through game programming by Michael Dawson is in my opinion the best introduction to the C++ programming language, explaining the basics in a simple and comprehensive way. The books doesn't mention the more complex gestures of the language, but it is more than enough to get you started with a solid foundation on object-oriented (OO) programming.
