:-) 

I recommend a book "Scientific and Engineering C++" by
Barton&Nackman. (from awl too)

Its meant for fortran or C programmers to learn C++ not-so-quickly,
but I believe ada programmers can learn from it too and you dont need
to read it backwards. Its not a book for beginner programmers, but
people who have done programming on other languages for a long time.
