A number of people have voiced confusion about various threaded programming
issues.  I have a whole stack of books about threads programming, and one
of those books sticks out as being quite good.  Of course, it is concerned
with pthreads, but the author is careful to explain the concepts before
jumping into examples, so this book is useful even for kernel programmers
who never set foot in user land.

I didn't originally learn about threaded programming from this book, but I
wish I had:
