Almost every modern C++ (and other programming language) book deals
with basics of threads and concurrency. Concurrent programming is
standard for a decade now. C++ standard now has a notion of
multithreads. In light of this, I believe a simple statement about
getting a moden C++ book is enough.

If a link is desired, how about "C++ Concurrency in Action: Practical
Multithreading" by Williams.

   http://www.amazon.com/dp/1933988770

NOTE: I haven't read this book, but from TOC it seems to cover most
important things about threads.
