Prashant,
I first checked out the
Java tutorial on threads at the sun site. After this i checked out the book Java Threads (A defenite no from my side), the core java II section on threads is excellent(Core Java Volume II -Advanced Features , Sun Microsystems Press) . For advanced stages i am checking out concurrent programming which is indeed a great book for advanced users.
