In this practical guide, subtitled "Building efficient parallel applications", author Milan Curcic starts from the essentials of  modern Fortran, with a focus on reusable modules, functions, and subroutines before diving into Fortran's unique approach to parallel programming with coarrays. He then systematically explores all the really interesting stuff: how to overload operators and generic functions, work with a variety of different inputs and outputs, and much more. Finally, readers will take on advanced parallelism with teams and events, and interoperability with C.
