/**
* The Version Number pattern helps to resolve concurrency conflicts in applications.
* Usually these conflicts arise in database operations, when multiple clients are trying
* to update the same record simultaneously.
* Resolving such conflicts requires determining whether an object has changed.
* For this reason we need a version number that is incremented with each change
* to the underlying data, e.g. database. The version number can be used by repositories
* to check for external changes and to report concurrency issues to the users.
*
* In this example we show how Alice and Bob will try to update the {@link Book}
* and save it simultaneously to {@link BookRepository}, which represents a typical database.
*
*
As in real databases, each client operates with copy of the data instead of original data
* passed by reference, that's why we are using {@link Book} copy-constructor here.
