Java Concurrency In Practice, Section 3.2.

Get jiggy with it.

I read that book 2.5 years ago, in july.  You'll have to read it a
second time to fully appreciate it.

I was attempting to debug deadlocks and memory leaks in webslinger,
commons-vfs, and ofbiz.  While googgling around, I kept running into
references to that book.  After purchase, I went thru and removed all
synchronized areas from ofbiz, implemented non-blocking, rewrote the
commons-vfs manager from scratch to modern standards(it had several
deep-set problems), etc.

I absolutely love that book.

Unless a person is willing to spend time reading the entire Java specification, there is no way to know those things without a book like that.
