My preference. It isn't the easiest to learn from.
More of a language guide than a learning book.
The examples are not always the easiest to follow for a beginner(to C++) as
it uses a more technical approach.
Also as it covers the whole C++ language it doesn't give as in depth
examples
as some other books.
My favourite book for a beginner would be Thinking in C++ by Bruce Eckel.
Accelerated C++ by Koenig & Moo is always highly recommended but
is suitable more for people who have programmed before
