I agree with everyone, this is a true clear written JS book.
I'm a beginer, and took a JS class which was sucked. So I ended of reading this book outside class, and was very helpful. It helped me understood a lot of programming language methods.
But only one thing I have to point out: this book is a "Microsoft" JS book. It is helpful to get known the PC environment, but it's just too much. Well, this is a understandable since the publisher is Microsoft Press.

I haven't actually finished the entire book, but I am about 75% done. It is clearly written with good examples. Easy to understand. I have a lot of programming in my background, but javascript is new to me. I strongly recommend this book for people in the same situation.

book got to me fast, it was in great condition. made me a please customer

I'll agree with Chris from Minneapolis. This is a great book no matter what level of scripting experience you have. I had/have very little java scripting experience and with this book, it's very simple to learn in a fashion that is geared more toward real-life situations, vs. just some script that a professor or teacher wants you to write that has no meaning besides giving you work to do. GREAT BOOK, RECOMMENDED TO ANYONE OF ANY LEVEL OF SCRIPTING EXPERIENCE!

This book was a great for a beginner to Java Script. The exercises were easy to follow and were relevant to real world problems that you may need to solve. The author keeps things lite and keeps the material interesting. Not only is this written for beginners with little to no programing experience (like me) but I can definitely see coming back to this book as a reference as I continue developing with Java Script!
