Summary: Great book to learn data structures with STL
Comment: This text is for sophomore-level students, but as the authors claimed it's a good read for professionals as well, a reason being that a professional of many years may not have learned data structures together with designs and implementations in C++ with STL. Going back five to ten years, the book in its current form could not have existed, which is why it's beneficial for the professional to read it.

As a professional, I envy the current college students who are lucky to have this book as the text of one of their courses. A student is also given a semester to digest its content, to do the exercises and projects at the end of each chapter, which is not usually possible for a professional. On the other hand, because of years of experience and perhaps plus college background, things students usually and sometimes must do aren't necessary for the professional, who should be able to read through the book in considerably shorter period of time.

In summary, it's a great read on the subjects, though one star is taken off for its imperfection such as mistakes in the code and less than superior presentation of some materials.

Summary: Great for Data Structures
Comment: Excellent book! It was assigned for my Data Structures course. Basic knowledge of C++ and the way classes work is required, but it is an excelent reference. I would NOT sell this book back to the campus bookstore for anything after completing the class.

Summary: Rutgers University College Student
Comment: This book presented the material on data structures in a clear and concise manner. The written exercises were appropriate for the subject matter at hand and they enhanced comprehension of the material in the chapters. This book teaches the abstract concepts of Data Structures, while also teaching how to practically go about implementing them in C++. Particularly useful is the concept of an abstract data type, and the emphasis on separation of implementation from specification. The bottom up approach to Data Structures is brilliant, this book is a must for college students. This was my Data Structures textbook, it was excellent!
