+ * Stores for boxed values of type `T` in a thread-safe manner.

+ * @see box
+ *
+ * @rst
+ *
+ * .. warning:: If memory policy used includes thread unsafe reference counting,
+ *    no no thread safety is assumed, and the atom becomes thread unsafe too!
+ *
+ * .. note:: ``box<T>`` provides a value based box of type ``T``, this is, we
+ * can think about it as a value-based version of ``std::shared_ptr``.  In a
+ *    similar fashion, ``atom<T>`` is in spirit the value-based equivalent of
+ *    C++20 ``std::atomic_shared_ptr``.  However, the API does not follow
+ *    ``std::atomic`` interface closely, since it attempts to be a higher level
+ *    construction, most similar to Clojure's ``(atom)``.  It is remarkable in
+ *    particular that, since ``box<T>`` underlying object is immutable, using
+ *    ``atom<T>`` is fully thread-safe in ways that ``std::atmic_shared_ptr`` is
+ *    not. This is so because dereferencing the underlying pointer in a
+ *    ``std::atomic_share_ptr`` may require further synchronization, in
+ * particular when invoking non-const methods.
