not well written
I think the book is not especially well written. Sentences
are long and in some cases unprecise or directly wrong.The book often does often not provide sharp and good definitions and
it is not easy to extract the information contents, compared to many other books within this or related fields,
for an example "Computer Architecture and Parallel Processing"
by Hwang and Briggs, or books by M. Morris Mano.

Up-to-date information, but not in a simplified way
this book was the recommended textbook for parallel architecture course which i took, it is a great book,since it covers the latest fields in parallel computers.But too difficult for a beginner, cause topics are explained in an advanced way, assuming a previous knowledge in parallel processing subjects.I find it more suitable for graduate or profissionals in this field rather than undergraduate students.

Great book for beginners and even experienced professionals!
I have read this book and its a very good book which explains all the details ranging from cache architecture to the basics of parallel computer programming. I have not seen any book that talks in detail about SMP and cc-numa.
