In addition to hacking code and managing a team of developers, he works on long-term vision and incubation efforts, such as language and type system support for concurrency safety
The final section covers many of the common system-wide architectural and process concerns of concurrent programming. This places an emphasis on understanding not only the platform’s capabilities but also emerging best practices. Joe does a great job interspersing best practices alongside theory throughout his book.” – From the Foreword by Craig Mundie, Chief Research and Strategy Officer, Microsoft Corporation Author Joe Duffy has risen to the challenge of explaining how to write softw
The definitive reference No need for any other book about concurrent programming on .net. This book have everything you need to become a master in multi-thread programming on Microsoft .net framework. A must have!. "Disappointing" according to Winston Kodogo. I really wanted to like this book, but in the end I couldn't. It seems to me to be at least twice as long as it needs to be, extremely poorly and confusingly written, and a mish-mash of random odds and ends. I don't think the author has really worked.

Thank goodness for Joe’s book. Joe Duffy is not only a preeminent expert in the art of developing parallel applications for Windows, he’s also a true student of the art of writing. Every self-respecting Windows developer should read this book.”—Jonathan Skeet, Software Engineer, Clearswift “What I love about this book is that it is both comprehensive in its coverage of concurrency on the Windows platform, as well as very practical in its presentation of techniques immediately applicable to real-world software development. It’s not simple, and Duffy doesn’t claim to make it so—but armed with the right information and exce
