Description: This book provides information and detailed discussions of key design decisions that will add to the expert's understanding. (Bjarne Stroustrup)
Stroustrup: The Design and Evolution of C++ The Design and Evolution of C++ Addison-Wesley, ISBN 0-201-54330-3. explaining the structure of the book, and with references to sections of D&E. I have been asked if D&E needs an update. The answer is not yet. From the point of view of language design, hardly anything has happened to C++ since the publication of D&E. The major concepts for the standard (such as, namespaces, exceptions, templates, dynamic cast) were in place when I wrote D&E. D&E focusses on language issues, so the major advances in library techniques don't affect it - especially as the fundamental language design decisions that made those advances possible are described in D&E. For example, I was aware of the STL at the time and some of the key STL design techniques are presented (from a language design point of view) in D&E.
