Reviews (10)
8 May 2012Still good, after all these years.
This book is about 15 years old now, although it's still relevant.
25 September 2010Excellent reference
I am a system-architect not a programmer, nevertheless I ask myself why on earth did I not buy this book sooner?
9 May 2009Remember the rules
This book is very clearly written, with easy to understand examples and rules.
7 November 2008Exceptional
I have used pthreads pretty extensively.
7 January 2008A 'need to have' for experts and non-expers
I first read the book about 6 years ago when on my MSc studies.
25 October 2007The best book on the topic
In my opinion, this book is better than because it goes way beyond just presenting the pthreads API.
27 July 2007Excellent book with practical advice for software developers
I've been using this book as a reference for Pthread programming for the past 2 years.
30 June 2007Okayish
Pros: - Understandable language Cons: - Need better explanations though.
1 September 2005Excellent for beginners; important details missing
I had no knowledge of thread programming before this book.
28 October 2004Better than some other reviewers thought
I started reading this book in 2000 when I already had programming experiences with threads .
