Synopsis
This authoritative book offers a detailed explanation of the features that make JavaScript an outstanding object-oriented programming language. As a result, this guide defines a subset of JavaScript that's more reliable, readable, and maintainable than the language as a whole.

October 10, 2009: I'm still not finished. I bought the book because I wanted to brush up on JavaScript since I took it awhile ago in school. It is FULL of great information, but it is so deep that I am buying another book to go along with it: Object-oriented JavaScript.

September 23, 2008: That's Crockford's approach to Javascript. I expected more. The examples were poor and he actually defends them by saying you just have to read them carefully. I think the lessons are muddled and if you're familiar with Crockford then you already know most of what's in this book.
