Needs to be more Application Oriented

This is a good book to get started on .NET threading. However some of the examples are syntax oriented rather than application oriented. For example, the chapter on synchronization covers all the synchronization mechanisms available in .NET but the examples appear to be rushed i.e concentrating on how to use them syntactically rather than providing concrete examples. I also found the book a little unorganized. Some of the snippets are incomplete or improperly explained. Nonetheless, this book helps in getting up to speed in a short time. It covers almost all aspects of .NET Threading. Good reference but not great. 3 stars.
