Consider C Template MetaProgramming, by David Abrahams.
“Expect a dense, code-first manual that forces you to think of C++ types as executable pieces of logic. Main value: it turns template syntax into reusable compile-time techniques through many worked examples and concrete implementations. Main limitation: the book assumes strong prior knowledge of C++ templates and spends little time on gentle introductions or modern standard shortcuts, so newcomers or readers seeking hand-holding will struggle. Best read with a compiler on hand so you can run and tinker with the examples.”
