Book Reviews of Head First JavaScript (Head First)

Book Review: Perfect Introduction
Summary: 5 Stars

I already use javascript when building websites, but felt that I didn't really understand how to get the most out of it. Like many designers/developers, I only really use a standard set of codes to add a basic level of functionality to a site. I wanted to go beyond the basics and to develop some decent applications.

Well this book sure helped me to achieve that. I thought that I had a good grasp of the concepts involved but gained a much more thorough understanding of scripting by the time that I finished this book. It really is an excellent beginners' book that takes you up to intermediate standard. I have already begun work on a couple of javascript projects and am making excellent progress thanks to the solid foundations laid by working through this book.

If you want a good grasp of the concepts involved in using javascript then buy this book and do all of the exercises in it and you will be well on your way.
