probably one of the best C++ books I've ever read: http://www.amazon.com/C%2B%2B-Primer-4t ... 684&sr=1-1

I disagree here. Sure this is a great book, but this is more a reference book then an introduction to C++.

I was assuming the OP already knows how to program in an imperative language, and has a general idea of what OO is about. In that case, Stroustrup is the right book.

If not, I'd rather suggest a different language instead of a different book.

DON'T BUY:
C++ In A Nutshell - it's a reference book, and not a great one at that.
Learning to program in C++ (Steve Heller) - just awful.
