Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:As well as covering the POSIX threads extension API (Application Programming Interface)--Pthreads, for short--the authors have done a very good job of covering threaded and multitasking programming in general. The material looks at the advantages and benefits of threading, but also addresses the potential problems and areas where care must be taken. Explanations are readable, with a good deal of C source code to illustrate points. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1996
