IsAlive should be:
public bool IsAlive
{
get
{
if(m_ThreadHandle.SafeWaitHandle.IsClosed)
{
return false;
}
Debug.Assert(m_ThreadObj != null);
bool handleSignaled = m_ThreadHandle.WaitOne(0,true);
while(handleSignaled && m_ThreadObj.IsAlive)
{
Thread.Sleep(0);
}
return m_ThreadObj.IsAlive;
}
}

Remove this text:
However, because Kill() is called on the client thread, the WorkerThread
object must store a Thread object referring to the worker thread as a member
variable. Fortunately, there is already such a member-the m_ThreadObj member
variable. You can only store the thread value in the thread method; you
can't store it in the constructor, which executes on the creating client's
thread. This is exactly what Run() does in this line:
m_ThreadObj = Thread.CurrentThread;
