Concurrency in Go: Tools and Techniques for Developers Review: Focused on Go-specific patterns and subjects, more practical than deep - This is a very practical book, so this is not a book for you if you are interested in theories behind Go's patterns, general Concurrency topics, deep dives into implementation details, etc. It's close to perfect for me case though. I'm very familiar with concurrency, but not familiar with Go's patterns, and I need to ramp up quickly and start contributing to a distributed system written in Go. This book had almost exactly the right amount of detail to start writing idiomatic concurrent Go. There's a few editing errors, some poor Kindle layouts, but nothing seriously detracting from the content. For the second edition I'd suggest shortening the error handling section (a lot of well-meaning advice there has little to do with concurrency) and add a couple of pages on memory model (where does Go put memory fences, when do we absolutely need to use atomics vs. regular variables are safe, this type of stuff; I found the comments in Go spec hard to parse, would benefit from translation from Google to human language there :) ) Review: So far my best Golang book - Perhaps one of the best books on Go I have read so far. There is little we can call unique in Go but the currency model. It is not like it is particularly novel, but there was a time when not many programming languages offered what Go has had for a while. Although these days, more languages are catching up with the model and offering similar or even more exciting alternatives. So, investing time in learning and gaining an appreciation for the Go concurrency model is something that I found fascinating and very practical. I'm sure I can use this knowledge to understand what other modern programming languages have started to offer as well. This book was wonderful to achieve that goal. The author extensively covers many functional patterns of Go concurrency using goroutines and channels and offers many valuable examples. I immediately applied some of this knowledge to my work, translating many of these concepts into practical applications. So, I can attest the book is instrumental, practical, and fascinating. It is something that I cannot say of every Go book, so I must highlight that, so far, this is my favorite. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #216,521 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #90 in Computer Programming Languages #168 in Software Development (Books) #327 in Programming Languages (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (291) | | Dimensions | 7 x 0.5 x 9.1 inches | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 1491941197 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1491941195 | | Item Weight | 13.6 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 236 pages | | Publication date | September 5, 2017 | | Publisher | O'Reilly Media | ## Images ![Concurrency in Go: Tools and Techniques for Developers - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91boXuKgKSL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Focused on Go-specific patterns and subjects, more practical than deep *by G***Y on January 29, 2024* This is a very practical book, so this is not a book for you if you are interested in theories behind Go's patterns, general Concurrency topics, deep dives into implementation details, etc. It's close to perfect for me case though.

There is little we can call unique in Go but the currency model. It is not like it is particularly novel, but there was a time when not many programming languages offered what Go has had for a while.

Found a mistake, few experiments not very convincing to me. *by R***O on October 10, 2017* Finished 70 pages or so, nice read. Well written, a good survey. Found one mistake in the book: time.Sleep(1) does not mean sleep one second, it's sleeping 1 nano second. Also some of the experiments are not very convincing to me. For example, the experiment that measures OS thread context switch v.s goroutine context switch. The goroutine context switch uses channel to send / recv between two goroutines, I think using the channel could si measured time could significantly impact the measured time. Maybe using a profiler could be more convincing. ## Frequently Bought Together - Concurrency in Go: Tools and Techniques for Developers - 100 Go Mistakes and How to Avoid Them - Learning Go: An Idiomatic Approach to Real-World Go Programming --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/54250104-concurrency-in-go-tools-and-techniques-for-developers](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/54250104-concurrency-in-go-tools-and-techniques-for-developers) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
