Modern C++ Design Generic programming and Design Patterns Applied [closed]

Answer 1

If your Company/Project allows boost. This book will help you to uncover some boost magic just for you own satisfaction.

If you Company/Project doesn't allow boost. This book will be a good guide to recreate some boost parts that you need most of all like boost::function.

I believe that in every project there is some kind of utility module. Such book will help you to make your 'utility' more generic and safe by borrowing some books suggested patterns and SFINAE tricks.

And most of all this book will show how you can rethink some of the GOF design patterns changing runtime polymorphism with static.
