About this ebook
The threading module provides thread-based concurrency in Python and few developers know about it, let alone, how to use it well. The main reason is because it is wily thought that Python does not support threads because of the Global Interpreter Lock (GIL).
This is false.
In fact, threads remain the best approach to achieve concurrency for IO-bound tasks.
* Do you know how to start a thread?
* Do you know how to use mutex locks with Python threads?
* Do you know how to identify a race condition?
