To a rough approximation, g++ is equivalent to gcc -x c++ -lstdc++
i.e. it assumes input files are C++ by default (even if they have a .c
file extension) and it automatically links to the C++ runtime library.
If you're compiling C++, you probably want to use g++ not gcc to get
the right defaults.

That's off-topic here as it's not a question about GCC. The books
referenced at http://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines#S-references
are a good list, and the CppCoreGuidelines themselves.
