...just Reference, reference and more reference...,
By A Customer
This review is from: JavaScript Bible, Gold Edition (Hardcover)
Very bad book for beginners, it buys thinking it that could be my best and unique book about JavaScript, my biggest error was not to have read a little in a store. In the reader level it says: from beginning to advanced, but a principiant does not learn with one minimal introduction and more than 1000 pages of reference... it seems like a dictionary. What a mistake !

There's a lot of JavaScript books on the planet,
By Daniel Talsky (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: JavaScript Bible, Gold Edition (Hardcover)
Oh my god where was this man's editor? Okay, granted it's a reference material, and quite comprehensive...but in the abscense of any real entry point for even an intermediate JavaScript user, why couldn't there have been some more intelligent indexing?There's nothing that really lays out the scope of JavaScript and it's various conflicting Document Object models and allows you to find what you're looking for right now. One reviewer said he READ the 1000+ page book and found that to be very valuable, but frankly, there's so many really understandable Javascript books out there, with ALMOST the same wealth of information, I'd rather read one of them.

shame on you, danny!,
By "byte_abit" (Portugal) - See all my reviews
This review is from: JavaScript Bible, Gold Edition (Hardcover)
i've heard Danny goldman was the expert in javascript, looked for his book, and bought it right away: no questions asked. didn't care about the 1500 pages. well, it is good, explains well, but its also overpriced, once you can get the samples (from the cd) scripts all over the net, and worst of all, the crucial pages (121), are exclusively on the cd, on pdf. though not worth the money, didn't return the book, only because i managed to print all the missing pages for free (but this is a waste again, because i could easily download the file for free too!); but also because i don't trust the on-line refund mechanisms
