I'm taking that you mean "my _best_ piece of work so far"? ;) The chapter on "Mastering Parallelism" is good! I helped review the chapter (not that I contributed much as it was pretty much done), but here's my review that I totally wasn't bribed to write: > The mastering parallelism chapter is solid and should help even new comers to > multi-threading master writing good multi-threaded programs that are fast > _and_ stable. You won't learn how to scratch every inch of performance out > threading -- which would be a whole book itself -- but it's a good blend of > practical examples and pragmatic advice. P.S.: I am totally fine with review bribes _ex post facto_. ;)
