 Dr. Dobb's | Exceptional C++ | April 15, 2003
Sutter's typical approach is to start with a short snippet of code, and then to say, in effect, "what's wrong with this?" Be forewarned: if you tackle this book you had better enjoy reading through code — and some programmers simply do not.
Sutter's own orientation seems to be toward large-scale projects, and his book will have the most appeal to those who are creating libraries for the same.
Sutter presents a code snippet and then asks the reader to determine which of the included headers are really necessary to make it compile.

 Herb Sutter: never make virtual functions public(!) - GameDev.Net Discussion Forums
Sutter's latest book mention a few examples in which, because that the program still see private members, name lookup for methods and such get screwed up because the first match has been found, only to have the compiler reject the compilation because it can be seen but not used.
As noted, the NVI pattern sutter prefered to dubbed his idea, works perfectly well in cases where you only need a single entry point to the method, with a customizable method depending on the derived class.
There are probably many other items in Sutter's book you should adhere to prior to this, but if all you have of a conviction to do otherwise is your good ol' textbook and "but that's not how I used to do it", do consider it.

 Application Development Trends - At SD West: Microsoft’s Sutter heralds C++ standard
In a keynote address at the SD West Conference in Santa Clara, Calif., Microsoft Architect Herb Sutter told an audience of developers and IT managers that standards work currently underway at European standards group ECMA and the International Organization for Standardization, better known as ISO, aims to ensure that Microsoft’s.NET architecture can incorporate C++.
Sutter noted that while.NET is the key underlying development technology in Longhorn (“We’ve bet the company and all of its tools on this direction.”), Microsoft is working with the international standards groups to ensure support for C++ within the ISO Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) standard.
Meanwhile, Sutter said the latest scheduled release date for Longhorn is early 2006, when it will take its place as Microsoft’s fourth major operating system technology after DOS, Win-16 and Win-32/64.
