I have a copy of Concurrency in Ada and it is quite good. The only
problem I have is that the index page numbers are completely wrong.
Is there any way to get an updated index? Will the new reprint have
the correct page numbers?
Thanks,

Yikes, you are right! I just checked my copy and found out that asynchronous
systems are discussed on page 409. The book has only 381 pages!!! I never
used the index before since I read the book completely.
But the problem is known to the authors. There is a Webpage dedicated to
this book: www.cs.york.ac.uk/~burns/CIA.html which contains an errata section
describing the problem: www.cs.york.ac.uk/~burns/CIAerrata.html
This page also contains a corrected (Burns & Wellings claim) index (as a
PostScript-File). I briefly checked it; it seems to be OK.
Thanks for the notification.
Regards,
Frank
