JavaScript book recommendations for Jenn

whatever.md

looking for book recommendations. please comment with books and what level (beginner, advanced, etc) thnx babes

My all-time favorite: http://domscripting.com/book (beginner)

The Tangled Web (intermediate/advanced) is mostly focused on security but I recommend it to everyone because is provides a wonderful tour of the browser platform and includes a lot of the history of how various apis evolved and got to the place where they are at today.

I found a lot of good information, at least for me with Secrets of the Javascript Ninja

I liked JavaScript Allongé by Reginald Braithwaite. Even if you don't use JS the way he talks about in the book, the way he breaks down the internals and explains concepts like inheritance and currying and stuff is really approachable. At least, I thought so. Definitely an advanced book.

Master Space and Time With JavaScript (http://www.noelrappin.com/mstwjs). It's advanced beginner, with a focus on testing and dealing with JavaScripts unique features.

• Eloquent JavaScript by Marijn Haverbeke – beginner, introduction to programming using JS

Another vote for Effective JavaScript. That book absolutely shines.

It's big and heavy but you can't beat the completeness of JavaScript: The Definitive Guide
