This is great book for intermediate JavaScript developer. The author is very experienced developer and was working with a lot of technologies that are evolving around JavaScript and he is presenting them in very nice way in this book.
I would agree with other reviewers that maybe this book is not about "Pushing the limits" of JavaScript development, but I think there are three things that make this book worth 5 start review:
1) It is touching a lot of technologies, frameworks and ways of development that you can explore afterwards more deeply.
2) The author is experienced and he knows what he is talking about
3) The way that this book is written, I haven't read better written book that is lite to read and educational.
JavaScript with intermediate experience can easily read and understand this book. Well done!

Sono stato indeciso fino all'ultimo tra tre e quattro stelle.
Inizia molto bene, dando consigli utili e presentando tecniche interessanti.
Regge bene anche quando parla di Backbone, riuscendo ad essere più chiaro di altri manuali dedicati.
Purtroppo quando inizia ad esplorare le parti più avanzate di Backbone, e poi quando parla di Node e Mongo, diventa molto fumoso e appena introduttivo.
La parte sul mobile consiglia pratiche che ormai sono deprecate, se non addirittura sbagliate.
Torna a riprendersi nella parte dedicata a canvas e SVG.
L'appendice dedicata a LESS non è proprio inerente a Javascript ma è una buona introduzione al preprocessore CSS.

JavaScript Programming: Pushing the Limits gives a flying start to Javascript - client and server side variations. A brief overview on various frameworks both for desktop and mobile environments. The book is a good reading. Each chapter ends with various resources and references.
