First of all, this book is a treasure! Thank you so much for this wonderful gift to the world :)

I'm reporting a minor oversight in the void free() function in the below part of the book:
Chapter 30: Condition Variables
Page 15
Figure 30.15

The function body doesn't have a line (pseudocode, at least) to return back the allocated memory to heap, leading to a memory leak.
