i would recommend using internet for doing languages as they have large varieties of exercises and good techniques of explaining. if i have to recommend a book on C++ then i would recommend Robert Lafore

I agree with sigs. I prefer to learn first on the internet and then buy more advanced books later.

The best C++ book in my opinion is "Essential C++" but there are so many tutorials out there now that you wouldn't even need to buy a book.

Ronin's suggestion is great... but I'd save it for your second book. For your first book I would go here and get Thinking in C++. It's a free download and will get you started a little more gently. Bjarne Stroustrup's book is awesome, though. It is the most complete book I've encountered, and does great things like show you how to write a four-function calculator that follows order of operations.
