Multithreading in .NET

While trying to write my latest app, I've discovered some more about divergence between Java and .NET.  I'm writing a multithreaded app, only to uncover that .NET parent threads don't “own” their child threads (!).  So, what are other peoples' experiences with threading books for .NET? The only one I've come across so far is Alan Dennis' “.NET Multithreading” but that seems to have gotten mixed reviews over at amazon.  Is his the authoritative source, or are there better?

The best source of info on threading that I've found is actually the Async App Block from MS Patterns and Practices: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnpag/html/paiblock.asp

Of course MS would already have a P&P guide out for it :) Thanks for the pointer. I can't wait to see what great new design comes out of the MSDN team for their site. From what I've read it'll be much easier to find what you want.
