The 3rd edition of Stroustrop's "The C++ Programming Language" has a
worthwhile
section on the differences between C and C++ (B.2). It's worth reading,
even
if you only program in C, since it touches on some pretty subtle C
behaviour,
such as the sizeof(char).

The 2nd edition of Stroustrop's book, BTW, had a similar section; but the
the 3rd edition's treatment is fuller. And C++ has grown a lot since then.
