Review of Concurrent Programming on Windows

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

Got this book yesterday in the post and started reading. Table of contents is amazing for its practical depth and breadth. If you want me to provide a review in a language of concurrency  (I’m reading many books in parallel) I would simply say one word:

Priority!

It simply means priority reading for any Windows software developer and maintainer. Invaluable for any engineer debugging complex software problems and analyzing Windows crash dumps. Simply because Microsoft OS and CLR developers use all this concurrent stuff and best practices described in the book so it is vital to be able recognize them in memory dumps. After reading this book you also get priority boost in your understanding of process and thread dynamics and your ability to plan, architect, design and implement concurrent applications and services.
