Using executors makes some thread 'issues' easier, but they shouldn't just be used as the default.
They're great for task-based threads, but not as ideal for single-use threads that last the life of the application.
There's also the issue that people just throw things into exectors without paying any attention to bounds (hey, just leave it unbounded) and resources.
The book recommendation is solid though, and a great reference to keep re-reading. One of my desktop companions.
