please help me to choose a C++ book

hi everyone
im wondering if there is a book about C++ which is rated must-read like the
"C programming language 2nd ed." on C?
im a EE student and have a strong background in C.

Please give me some advice on choosing a C++ book. im totally lost right now
cuz there are really way too many books on C++.
and i'm really appreciated if you can share some websites on C++ with me.
Thank you very much.
have a nice day :)

No you are an idiot and you don't know how to post in here. (Just kidding
but I thought I would save the other idiots in here the trouble)

I use Deitel's C++ How to Program Fourth Edition.

The FAQ for this newsgroup has some books listed.
http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/
I'll also suggest looking at the "Netiquette when posting to comp.lang.c++"
item, so you will understand a bit about the eccentric culture found
herein.

It sounds to me the book you should read is _The C++ Programming Language
Special Edition_ http://www.research.att.com/~bs/3rd.html It is the K&R of
C++. Well, except that there is no K&R for C++.

There's no easy answer. C++ is much larger than C, and is probably the most
complex general purpose programming language ever created.

No question about it: "The C++ Programming Language", 3rd edition (or the
"special edition" if you want the hardback), by Bjarne Stroustrup, the
creator of C++.

For a tutorial introduction to C++ that focuses on the cool stuff in the
standard library (unlike most other C++ tutorials), check out Koenig and
Moo's "Accelerated C++."

Regarding being an idiot, have you read the FAQ and welcome.txt,
especially about not top-posting?
