Well, these book are extremely dated.  After all it appeared back in 1995.
I have not seen the second edition of the first book yet.  Anyway, just
consider Item 5 in the first book.  The final language specification
actually says it is undefined behavior to call the wrong delete (but few
compilers manage to warn when this happens, also in most cases they could).
Or item 3 in the second book - you don't have problems if you use STL rather
than self-cooked arrays.  Or consider item 13 in the second book.  This is
again more an advice for language beginners, everybody even a tiny bit
experienced should really know.
