Good Books On Programming With Threads?

uneek writes "I have been programming for several years now in a variety of languages, most recently C#, Java, and Python. I have never had to use threads for a solution in the past. Recently I have been incorporating them more in my solutions for clients. I understand the theory behind them. However I am looking for a good book on programming threads from an applied point of view. I am looking for one or more texts that provide thorough coverage and provide meaningful exercises. Anyone have any ideas?"

I suppose if they were thick and coarse enough they would constitute threads, mayhaps even a new slant on quantum-entangled string theory. Be sure and mention that it was done for science and the good of mankind.
