Burn the book. 

Start again (with a different author). 

For some idea of which book(s) to get look at the book review section of
http://www.accu.org

There are about 1700 reviews (catagorised and a search mechanism etc.)
of current C, C++, Java and SW engineering books. These reviews are
written by ACCU members and are exactly what they think of the books (no
punches pulled). 

The Assn of C & C++ Users is a non-profit makeing assn. run "by
programmers for programmers". It has NO COMMERCIAL INTERESTS or
commercial support. The only thing they "sell" is membership. We (as a
member and former Hon Sec) are in the business of improving [C/C++] SW
Engineering not profit.

The web site, including the book reviews section,  is totally free to
all.  


Regards
