Before purchasing this book I borrowed it from a friend. Unfortunately he needed it back before I could finish, but it didn't matter because I had already decided it should be part of my Java book collection. It fits right in with my other two favorite Java books, Effective Java and Java Puzzlers. This book does a great job of explaining concurrency in the Java language and the best practices. The book not only gives examples of what you should do, but also what not to do. The majority of the book describes Java concurrency practices at higher levels, but the last chapter also describes the Java Memory Model for those wanting to tie it all together. I would consider this book to be for intermediate and advanced Java programmers. As the book states, it is not an introduction to concurrency so you should at least have a good understanding of Java threading basics before jumping in.Get more detail about Java Concurrency in Practice.
