In my opinion (mainly formed by the 2nd edition, though I've looked at the
3rd too) Stroustrup's book is bad, both for beginning, intermediate and
advanced users. For beginning and intermediate users of C++, too much
knowledge is assumed; for advanced users, the text is not precise enough.

I've found the C++ primer to be much easier to digest.

A collegue of mine has this, and is quite enthusiastic about it.
Another recommendation, for beginning programmers, is "On to C++" by Wilson
(I don't have my copy handy; sorry for the lack of details).
