Scott Meyers has an Introduction: http://www.artima.com/shop/overview_of_the_new_cpp

He's also writing a new book that's available in Rough Cuts from O'Reilly that covers C++11/14: http://scottmeyers.blogspot.com/2014/06/effective-modern-c-s... and has given a talk covering some of the same ground: http://vimeo.com/97318797

Herb Sutter has "Elements of Modern C++ Style": http://herbsutter.com/elements-of-modern-c-style/ and has given several talks, such as http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/Build/2014/2-661

Finally, you can't really beat Stroustrup's book: http://www.amazon.com/The-Programming-Language-4th-Edition/d...

Principles and Practices is a book for people who have not programmed before. Unfortunately, the book you want is the fourth edition of The C++ Programming Language, which will not be available until April: http://www.amazon.com/dp/0321563840
