From the reviews: "Written as a textbook, the book is much more than that-it is a comprehensive resource for those interested in parallel computing...Readers should not be misled by the relatively small size of the book-it is complete and well organized...Summing Up: Recommended." (J. Beidler, Choice, September 2003)
