Threads aren't a new idea: many operating systems and languages support them. But despite widespread support, threads tend to be something that everyone talks about, but few use. Programming with threads has a reputation for being tricky and nonportable. However, Java's thread facilities are easy to use and completely portable between platforms. Revised to cover Java 1.2, this text focuses on Java's thread facilities, showing: where to use threads to increase efficiency, how to use them effectively, and how to avoid common mistakes.

Extended examples include classes that implement reader/writer locks, general locks, locks at arbitrary scope, and asynchronous I/O.
