Summary: The Best JavaScript Book out there.
Review: This book is by far the most comprehensive book on JavaScript available. There are no pictures, only text. So if your one for Eye Candy you may not enjoy this book. IF I could sum this book up in one word.... "Complete". This book along with Jennifer Niederst's Web Design in a Nutshell are the only 2 books any html coder will need.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book saved me a lot of suffering.
Review: I'm embedding JavaScript in a special-purpose web browser, and this book saved me at least a week of work with some abstruse but crucial details of the scope chain. I've found O'Reilly books to be very concise and thorough, which are wonderful qualities for readers who are power users, though not appropriate for many beginners.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: BUY THIS BOOK!
Review: This is probably the best reference book I have seen. Concise, easy to understand with every section of code explained. The complete reference section alone is enough reason to buy it. I wish all computer/programming books were structured like this.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must have book!!
Review: This book is a must for anyone wishing to add active content to their web pages. It is complete, very well written, and filled with code examples. I enjoyed it very much and decided to add it to my list of favorite internet programming books on my "Visual Basic Book Reviews" web site. You can't go wrong with this one!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Problem is the cover
Review: The book's cover is soooo ugly! That's why I won't consider this book

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Definitive indeed!
Review: This book describes in details all the ins and outs of JS. Extremely thorough, this is what I have at hand while JavaScripting.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One of the few books that lives up to its title
Review: A truly outstanding reference for professional Web developers. The only JavaScript reference book I consistently turn to when I have a problem. The fact that I carry this with me wherever I go, despite its weight, offers a testament to its value in my work.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: excellent
Review: Very informative and interestin

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Get it.
Review: I'm learning JS at the time of this writing. So far I've bought Goodman's JS Bible, this book by Flanagan and a Peachpit Press book by Negrino & Smith. The Definitive Guide is the best by far of the three. Flanagan does a superior job of writing and explaining clearly.

One drawback to Flanagan's book though is that it mostly seems to be written for someone who has a programming background. His first few chapters will only make sense if you know programming techo-lingo. If not, then your going to have to find another source to get you off of the ground. When your ready to fly, buy *this* book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: For those who don't like the cover
Review: Great book. I submitted a 5-star review earlier, but I want to address the subject of the "controversial" cover.

The rhino on the cover is a species that is found only in the isle of Java. Get it yet? This information, by the way, is in the book.
