If there is one book that I would recommend to those who design for java based applications or code in java then it would be this book. It gives you incredible insights into threading-in-java! Given multi-core and multi-processor systems becoming a norm than exception, multithreading is the future, even for the programmers at grass-root. This book made me feel less proud of all multi-threading code that I've written till today. I hope that I will not repeat my blunders. In fact, I aint that sure till I read this book over-&-over again.
