C++ 11 provided strong support for multithreaded applications, and the subsequent C++14 and 17 updates have built upon this foundation. C++ now offers better options for concurrency than ever before, making it an incredibly powerful choice for multicore and parallel applications. This bestseller has been updated and revised to include all the latest changes in C++ 14 and 17!

C++ Concurrency in Action, Second Edition teaches readers everything they need to know to write robust and elegant multithreaded applications in C++17. Along the way, they’ll learn how to navigate the more complex aspects of programming for concurrency while avoiding common pitfalls.
