"FAQ Book" versus "FAQ posting"

Now that Addison-Wesley has published C++ FAQs by Cline and Lomow (1995, ISBN 0-201-58958-3), many people have asked about the relationship between the book and this posting. Some who haven't seen the book have wondered whether the posting was equivalent to the book. This section answers these questions.

The "FAQ book" (at bookstores starting Oct. 94) is loosely based on the same concepts as this posting. However the FAQ book is approx five (5) times bigger than this posting, including thousands of cross references, external references, and index terms, as well as many programming examples.
