I recently read C++ Lambda Story by Bartłomiej Filipek, and I found it to be a fascinating dive into lambda expressions in C++. As someone who has worked with C++ for several years, I thought I knew most of its features, but the book introduced me to several aspects of lambda functionality that I wasn't aware of. It was a true revelation, especially regarding the advanced uses of lambdas in various contexts. One particular concept that stood out to me was lambda inheritance, which I had never used before. Thanks to the book, I’ve started exploring it, although I’m still not sure where I can apply it in my own code yet.

Filipek explains complex topics in a clear and approachable way, making it easy to grasp even the more intricate details of lambda expressions. However, I would have loved to see a section on lambdas in C++23, as it would provide a complete picture of their evolution and new capabilities. Overall, I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to deepen their understanding of C++ and explore some of its more advanced features.

Just like in his previous book and his blog, Bartłomiej explains very well the details of lambda basics, the usage of lambda in your C++ code and goes all the way to the expert domain of this topic. Great read and very comprehensive (e)book to keep on your desk.

How do I write a review of this book that I don't even have a copy. All I can say is I started learning C++ Lambda from examples in Qt 5 and it has helped a lot in writing my programs.
