About this product

Product Information

Most programming languages contain good and bad parts, but JavaScript has more than its share of the bad, having been developed and released in a hurry before it could be refined. This authoritative book offers a detailed explanation of the features that make JavaScript an outstanding object-oriented programming language, and warns you about the bad parts. In the process, JavaScript: The Good Parts defines a subset of JavaScript that's more reliable, readable, and maintainable than the language as a whole. Author Douglas Crockford, a member of JavaScript 2.0 committee at ECMA, is considered by many people in the development community to be the JavaScript expert. A beautiful, elegant, lightweight and highly expressive language lies buried under a steaming pile of good intentions and blunders, he explains. The very good ideas include functions, loose typing, dynamic objects, and an expressive object literal notation. Awful ideas include a programming model based on global variables. With JavaScript: The Good Parts, you can release this elegant programming language from its old shell, and create more maintainable, extensible, and efficient code.

    I bought it for my mum's birthday and she loves it. It has good information and images explaining things in excellent detail. It arrived well packaged and in new condition as advertised. Simplybestprices was the cheapest I found on the internet, so I went with them. The only negative was with the shipping, not the product. I ordered in Dec 2024 and it took many weeks before getting shipping details and then the delivery date kept changing and moving later. It eventuallly arrived early Feb.

    Item as described. Good communication and packaging. Delivery time was slow and tracking notes cryptic until it reached Australia but this was out of hands of seller. Recommended seller.

    Very overrated

    This book is badly written, badly edited, and tries very hard to turn a sow's ear into a purse without succeeding. I don't understand why it's so highly regarded. After I finished it I immediately started a Manning javascript book and was surprised at how much more sense it made, how much better it was organized, how much easier to read it was.

    Not for everybody.

    My learning style likes this. There's enough reviews. I just would like a newer version. Maybe better quality publishing.

    This is THE JS book to read and follow

    This has been the recommended book for JavaScript developers since it was first published. If you want to write good JavaScript code, this is the book to learn from.
