[Dev-C++] OT: A Good C++ Book ?

[Sami B. <in...@ba...>]

Hi,
I have been learning C++ for about 4 months now from online free 
resources and i feel that i would like to gain a better understanding of 
the language and become more advanced at it. I know 4 months isn't much 
time but I have done programming in PHP before and grasped the basics of 
C++ pretty easily.
I am simply asking people from the list if they could recommend any GOOD 
C++ programming books that are not Visual Studio, because i would like 
to program on Linux as well as Windows without having to do major 
changes to the code, so will be using the gcc compiler all the time. It 
would also be nice if the book could explain how to program using 
sockets ( I know they are different for Windows and Linux ). I am doing 
this more as a hobby at the moment and maybe later on take a course at 
uni in it. Im not too bothered about how much the book may cost, all i 
am really interested in is the clarity of the book and how far i can go 
with it ( I want to go far :) ).

Thanks in advance for the suggestions.
