If you're a beginner you don't need a book, you go online and read on some basics.
If you're a pro you do need a book and this is the book you need.

This book is great for intermediate to advanced Javascript developers who wish to brush up on their Javascript. The book contains many great ideas on how to write better Javascript applications by following tried and true Javascript patterns. For beginners, the code examples help a lot, but they may take a longer to follow the concepts and code. Anyone having read this book will walk away a better Javascript developer.

I've been programming for years, and while I've enjoyed many other JS books including "The Good Parts" nothing brought it together for me like this. IMHO it's simply the best book on the subject. If you know other languages, yet are always wondering about those weird JS techniques, and the reasons behind them, this is the book for you. It led me to a few ah-ha moments and has really helped me better understand JS programming. No matter what your level of experience, you'll get something from this book. It's a gem.
