• awesome book on concurrency
  An awesome book on concurrency that all Java programmers ought to read before embarking on anything more complicated than the primordial Hello World application.

• Title should be: Java Thread Bible
  After reading this book you will probably thank God that you haven't been using threads, but with that being said this book contains all the information you need to start writing code that walks the straight and narrow path.

• Authoritative on the subject
  This is "the" authoritative book on java concurrency. However, apart from some java specific items, the book is an excellent source on parallelism in general. Do not even try to implement parallelism without "reading and understanding" this book. Highly recommended !!!
