Summary: Jeremy Schneider went on to notoriety!
Comment: This book is no indication of his future, but the contributor Jeremy Schneider apparently went on to get involved with some shady internet operations. See howtoburn.com

Summary: Great Book!
Comment: This book is great for people with a background in other programming languages. It lets you dive right in with clear concise definitions and examples.
It is not for people who want in depth explanations. The book cuts out most of this fluff.
I wish he had an advanced book out. Some more in depth explanations would be nice on some coding techniques particular to JavaScript.

Summary: This Javascript book disappoints me.
Comment: I'm ususally quite satisfied with the Visual Quickstart Guide Series because they are easy to read and most of the examples work. But this Javascript book disappoints me in a big way. Most of the examples do not work and it's frustrating to find out after typing them in. How can someone publish a book on a scripting language without testing whether the examples work? Plus, the book really doesn't do a good job on explaining the syntax so one can't learn how a script is constructed.
