الحقيقة، تقييمي ليس للكتاب بحد ذاته بقدر ما هو للتجربة التي خضتها أثناء قراءته. اتخذته لي معلمًا!. أدون على دفتري المعلومات التي أتعلمها، و كلما خطر لي سؤال بحثت عنه على النت. و كأني في فصل مع أستاذي الخاص يشرح لي و يجيب أسئلتي -بطرق غير مباشرة. و شعرت من خلاله من جديد بمتعة أن أتعلم شيئا أستطيع استخدامه بشكل فوري.

استمتعت كثيرا في قراءته، و أظنها بداية متمكنة لتعلمي للجافا سكربت. تعلمت الكثير و أصبحت أكثر قدرة على التعامل مع السكربتات الجاهزة لتعديلها كما أريد. فقط أحتاج لبعض من التدريب العملي لأتمكن مما تعلمته أكثر.

Good book, on old JS standards. It basically makes the reader comfortable working with Js basics, below intermediate level I mean. Author could have focused on OOPs and event handling would have been be a ++, examples are based on old IE and netscape, with little on mozilla.
I seriously feel this book is enough for academic level, but definitely not for professional level! I used it in my sophomore diploma in computer engineering.

Short scripts for web pages and forms or make short applications not intended for long application programming. Good info though out dated.
