Of all the books that I've purchased over the years, I believe Joe may be the most qualified for the topic.Joe takes the reader through all sorts of things in this book, from basic synchronization algorithms (and why we need them), formally defining threads, Windows and .NET APIs, synchronization primitives, memory models, and so much more. I haven't quite finished this book yet, but have am on the last chapter (then there are two appendices). Not all of the code samples work if you try to run them, however, the minor typos that exist in the code and the text are easy enough to overcome.I came at this book knowing the basics of programming in C#, but not really knowing a whole lot about concurrency issues. While I don't even pretend to be an expert at this now, I do at least feel comfortable analyzing code and making decisions about what to do for various problems, and also feel that I can at least have an intelligent conversation about the topics covered in this book. This book has also helped me cultivate a much deeper understanding of how a bunch of things in Windows, the CLR, and the .NET Framework work (beyond just concurrency issues).This book is pretty hefty. I'm not even finished and I'm over 800 pages in, and I would say that at least 85% of the topics in this book have helped me in my job. I would recommend this book to just about anyone that's starting out. The only thing I can say is as you start to get comfortable with the things Joe discusses, take a break to go read Appendix A, where he talks about ways that the lay person should and should not apply the knowledge in this book.This book does not deal with the Task Parallel Library very much, as it wasn't released when Joe wrote the book. If you're looking for a book on modern .NET Concurrency, I would recommend Stephen Cleary's Concurrency in C# Cookbook (forwarded by Stephen Toub; Stephen has a website you can read to preview some of his writing). With that said, this book deals with a lot of interesting, low-level details. It's definitely a good read for the curious, or for anyone contributing to a legacy .NET codebase. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome *by K***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 23, 2012* If you are looking to write a Hello World, this is not your book. If you are designing, developing, or troubleshooting a concurrent production worthy software then fasten your seat belts as this is your book. I am not a .NET programmer which made this book perfect for me. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent when errata is applied *by D***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 25, 2011* This is a book every serious dev should read. I don't know about an alternative.However, why did the publisher not correct the hundreds of errors found in the 2nd printing, now that the 4th printing is out?=> read the errata before studying the book!highly recommended. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kr/products/2611953-concurrent-programming-on-windows](https://www.desertcart.kr/products/2611953-concurrent-programming-on-windows) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Korea* *Store origin: KR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
