Everyone else's advice to learn by doing is great, but there is also _Expert C Programming_ by Peter van der Linden: http://www.amazon.com/Expert-Programming-Peter-van-Linden/dp/0131774298 http://www.amazon.com/Expert-Programming-Peter-van-Linden/dp... The presentation's "Deep C" pun is a reference to this book, and if you make it all the way to slide 444 you'll see it mentioned as further reading. It's a wonderful book for understanding C (not C++) and what's really going on.

It'll take a team of ten authors and a couple of decades to write something of that kind for C++. Though the language is full of horrors, I still quite enjoy C++ (esp. with C++11 and am looking forward to some C++14 features...)
