We used a preprint of his book, and I was very impressed with its clarity and uniformity of presentation and its espousal of a machine-independent, stepwise-refinement approach to parallel programming. (Bias: this was the first formal course in concurrent programming I have taken.) Recommended reading. -- Kian-Tat Lim (ktl@wagvax.caltech.edu, GEnie: K.LIM1)
