Great Book
I think this is a great book. The examples are right there, and Joe Burns explains the code LINE by LINE, in pretty much non-technical jargon. Great for a beginner, definitely, and certainly intermediate and advanced JavaScripters !
I enjoy the book, and Burns' humor. No question about it, this isn't your typical blah JavaScript book ! Would be good for instructors teaching JavaScript !

Ashmith.com Web Developer Review - Great Beginner book !!
This is the best book I have seen on JavaScript. Joe Burns and Andree Growney have done a great job in explaining and experimenting JavaScript. They cover all the beginner to intermediate tasks. This is a superb book, you should consider buying. Especially, if you are new to JavaScript. This is the cheapest book with lots of features never even shown in other books....

START HERE!!!!
Ok, you're not going to be a javascript wizard by reading this book. You may not even close the back cover with a complete understanding of the document object model, or what makes text scroll, or even why javascript works. You may even be a little teed that you were made to type all of that stuff (most of which worked, some of which didn't) and sort of "left hanging." Where now? What you will have when completing this book is enough knowledge to go forward to more advanced material and find out why javascript can give you hives of pleasure when implemented correctly. If you have no programming background, you're going to have to grind through this material eventually to make javascript do what you want it to. Think of this book as a first step towards a long journey of enlightenment. Wrox's "Beginning Javascript" is a good follow-up.
