A new writeup on Non-Virtual Interface (NVI) idiom has been written on More C++ Idioms wikibook. In the writeup, I discuss the relationship of NVI with the Fragile Base Class (FBC) problem, which can silently break perfectly good derived classes because of some innocuous changes in the base class.
Last year I reviewed the pre-print manuscript of Manning's Functional Programming in C++ written by Ivan Čukić. I really enjoyed reading the book. I enthusiastically support that the book Offers precise, easy-to-understand, and engaging explanations of functional concepts. Who is this book for This book expects a reasonable working knowledge of C++, its modern syntax, and semantics from the readers.

While there are many FP topics that could be discussed in such a book, I like the practicality of the topics selected in this book. Here's the table of contents at a glance. This is a solid coverage of functional programming concepts to get a determined programmer going from zero-to-sixty in a matter of weeks. Others have shared their thoughts on this book as well.
