 %description
-%{common_description}
+This package provides a higher-level interface over threads, in which an @Async
+a@ is a concurrent thread that will eventually deliver a value of type @a@.
+The package provides ways to create @Async@ computations, wait for their
+results, and cancel them.
+
+Using @Async@ is safer than using threads in two ways:
+
+* When waiting for a thread to return a result, if the thread dies with an
+exception then the caller must either re-throw the exception ('wait') or handle
+it ('waitCatch'); the exception cannot be ignored.
+
+* The API makes it possible to build a tree of threads that are automatically
+killed when their parent dies (see 'withAsync').
