Start Concurrent by Barry Wittman
By the first-time author, Barry Wittman, "Start Concurrent" is a full-fledged introduction to concurrent programming. The book begins with basic material-from computer basics and problem-solving techniques and goes on to introduce programming basics like primitive types and arrays. From there, the text moves into increasingly complex ideas like graphical user interfaces, classes, and inheritance. Important attention is paid to the concurrent programming topic where synchronization methods are debated in context with real-world usage. It also focuses on testing and debugging techniques, showing readers how to practically handle errors. With a mix of theory and example, it is an excellent entrance for a novice to the world of concurrency programming.

Concurrent and Distributed Programming
This web resource is a comprehensive tutorial on concurrent and distributed programming with all basics illustrated with practical examples. It starts with an overview of concurrency, illustrating critical principles with simple programming examples. Notes provide overviews of several programming languages-including C, C++, Java, Ada, and Perl-showing how each approaches concurrency. It encompasses mutual exclusion, message passing, and both the standard and an enhanced version of the classic Dining Philosophers problem. It also touches on threading in Java and Ada as well as introduces the POSIX threads library (pthreads) for C programs. This book is perfect for students and practitioners who need to know the underpinning of concurrent programming in different environments.
