Readily understandable analogies, visualizations and examples. Accessing information happens in miliseconds in todays world but having a phsycial copy and being able to cross-read it feels both nostalgical and nice. Review: It is an excellent book with a catch... - I had originally rated this book an 1-star to alert the potential buyers to a serious binding defect, which has also been encountered by several readers. In my original review (see below), I did indicate that the book by itself was excellent. I am editing the review to update a recent development soon after my complaint. Jim Minatel, the co-publisher, contacted me and kindly offered a hardcopy replacement, while at the same time, he tried to nail down the remaining defective copies. I am very grateful for his offer. About the book, I found it hard not to consume everything as soon as I could. In a week, I had already covered about 400 pages with great fun. I am an amateur programmer and know very little about web languages and how they operate in the whole scene of client-server relationship. This book helps me so tremendously because it brings in many related aspects around the core of web programming on the client side. Now, I feel more secure to venture another tiny step to look into web server and its implication in future mobile applications. It is worth mentioning that Jon Duckett also has written a book on a related topics: "HTML & CSS" which is also of very high standard. ___________(Original review)______________ The book is great, but true to many users' experience, the binding started to break apart only a few days after use. I knew about the binding issue from readers' reviews. I thought that when I ordered this in August 2014, the issue would have been fixed already. The extremely poor binding does not do the author justice. The book was conceptually constructed with great thoughts. If I have to rate it solely by its contents, I would have given it a 4-5 stars. I never rated a book according to its package or binding. In general, I should not. This book, however, is a special case because from start to end, it is designed with great care to present the user with a beautiful copy, in addition to leaving the reader a pleasant learning experience. __________________________________________

Great Buy! BUT. . .
The product itself is amazing. Well written, gorgeous design. It deserves a 5 star. HOWEVER, I'm quite disappointed that I received a paperback, despite paying for a Hardcover. Upon checking the posting, it says Hardcover is currently out of stock. So I am at a dilemma right now... I don't want to return this book because I need it now, but I wish I could get a refund for the extra cost I paid for the Hard Cover. I've been going around the links in Amazon, but couldn't find a way on how to get a refund for the extra cost I paid for the hard cover. Again, its not the author's fault, so I am keeping a 5-star rating for the product itself. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn JavaScript, just be careful not to buy an out-of-stock product, else you might get charged for a higher price. I hope Amazon or the seller would contact me about this.

Un superbe ouvrage pour qui veut structurer ses connaissances de base et se faciliter la tâche grâce à la librairie jQuery
Etant développeur et designer front-end , je désirais mettre des mots sur des techniques que j'utilisais déjà, structurer ma façon de programmer javascript et en bonus parfaire mes connaissances. J'ai trouvé ce dont j'avais besoin dans cet ouvrage, des explications claires, concises, pas après pas avec une première partie uniquement dédiée aux bases du langage Javascript natif et une seconde reprenant les techniques apprises en se facilitant la tâche avec jQuery pour la manipulation de la DOM . Chaque étape propose une partie théorique et en regard une mise en pratique par le code. La fin de chaque chapitre offrant un exemple complet. La cerise sur le gâteau est la formidable mise en page ainsi que les très riches illustrations qui procurent vraiment beaucoup de plaisir au lecteur. Je le conseille à tout qui a déjà des bases en programmation ou est au moins intermédiaire dans un autre langage et qui veut dès le départ avoir les outils nécessaires, ainsi que de bonnes pratiques pour envisager l'utilisation de Javascript et jQuery dans ses projets. Une base donc qui devra être complémentée par d'autres ouvrages plus poussés traitants d'aspects plus précis du langage ou rentrant plus en profondeur dans le code.
