The book also explains how to create simple games using JavaScript and includes a chapter on tips and tricks. The appendixes contain command references for HTML and JavaScript, and a listing of online resources for further study.

THE BEST JAVASCRIPT BOOK EVER, January 26, 2002
Reviewer: Robert Barnes from Los Angeles

I have read a few beginning JavaScript books and this was the clearest and easiest to follow. Now the book is a bit small (just under 300 pages). But every single thing is explained clearly and exactly. If you want to be up and running with JavaScript in short order, this is the one.
