C++ Concurrency in Action, 2nd Edition

C++ 11 delivered strong support for multithreaded applications, and the subsequent C++14 and 17 updates have built on this baseline. C++ has better options for concurrency than ever before, which means it’s an incredibly powerful option for multicore and parallel applications.

This bestseller has been updated and revised to cover all the latest changes to C++ 14 and 17! C++ Concurrency in Action, Second Edition teaches readers everything they need to write robust and elegant multithreaded applications in C++17. Along the way, they’ll learn how to navigate the trickier bits of programming for concurrency while avoiding the common pitfalls.

Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.
