Section 1.1 The Philosophy Behind the Book

Here are the guiding principles that make the book the way it is:
Balance of C++ and concepts:
The book is not primarily about C++; it uses code examples to demonstrate topics that are broadly applicable in programming and computer science. While we attempt to incorporate some important C++ specific features and best practices, this book is not a comprehensive guide to C++.
One concept at a time:
This book attempts to focuses on one concept at a time. Although chapters often will depend on material in previous ones, each chapter aims to be self-contained coverage of a particular concept.
