The Book of JavaScript (2nd edition) by "thau!" (Dave Thau, according to the book's companion website) is a new and comprehensive introduction to the JavaScript language presented in an entertaining, practical format. I was provided a review copy by the publisher, No Starch Press. I have significant practical experience with JavaScript, so I do not consider myself in the target audience for this book; however, I still found much of it useful so it will remain as a valuable reference on my bookshelf.

Well, I'm not reading osnews to see this kind of advertising. This really not related to the future of computing...
I wouldn't mind if this book would be about advanced and less know features of javascript like prototyping/JS2 but this is clearly not the case.
I guess anyone who would want to learn javascript is able to browse amazon and read reviews over there if he whishes.
