Excellent introduction to the field, specially for the beginner. There is no other book as clear and concise as this one. If you need an introduction to parallel computing / programming, buy the second edition of this book now!
Essential 4 any prospective parallel computing professional

I bought this book when I was a 2nd grade CS student. I planned to start my research project in supercomputing field. So I decided to study the aspects of parallel computing starting by its concepts and programming. As a programmer I found that I would need the general view before coding. Kumar's book is great in which it gives you generalized overview of hardware and software architectures. He and his contributors don't take care of what system nor language you're using. Instead, they want you to learn Parallel Programming. Scientific and non-numerical algorithms are overviewed and explained mathematically. They prove everything they state by using mathematics. I don't know any better way. Do you? It's worth every penny.
Good book on parallel computing

This book is a very good one for the parallel computing fields. The most interesting parts of the book to me are the parallel alogrithms design & analysis. The ideas are explained clearly and the exercises are nice too. I would like to recommend this book to all my friends who are interested in parallel computing.
Great details and insightful
