History
The first edition of The C++ Programming Language was published in 1985 (ISBN 978-0201120783). As C++ evolved, a second edition was published in July 1991 (ISBN 978-0201539929), reflecting the changes made.
The third edition of The C++ Programming Language (ISBN 0201889544), was first published on 30 June 1997; a hardcover version of the third edition, with two new appendices, was later published as The C++ Programming Language: Special Edition (ISBN 0201700735) on 11 February 2000. Both the softcover third edition and the hardcover “special edition” have since undergone several reprintings, with corrections.
C++ Solutions (ISBN 0-201-30965-3) is a companion book to the third edition of The C++ Programming Language. It contains solutions to selected exercises of C++ Solutions.
The fourth edition of the book, which will incorporate C++11, is scheduled to be released on May 20, 2013.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“History, as an entirety, could only exist in the eyes of an observer outside it and outside the world. History only exists, in the final analysis, for God.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“Boys forget what their country means by just reading “the land of the free” in history books. Then they get to be men, they forget even more. Liberty’s too precious a thing to be buried in books.”
—Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)
“Humankind has understood history as a series of battles because, to this day, it regards conflict as the central facet of life.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
