I'm looking for a Javascript book...

Question

I would like a book to learn Javascript.
I'm not a complete beginner, infact I already know C++, C and Java.
I don't want a book that explain what "if", "while", "for" etc... etc... stand for or that illustrate the basic concepts of OOP.
I would like also a book with a lot of excercises in Javascript, from the simplest to the hardest.

Any suggestion??

Thank you! 😉

Answer 1

I recomend this one :

JavaScript: The Good Parts
by Douglas Crockford

I believe this is one of the really few book which you can read a hundred times and still find in it some hidden gem you didn't notice before.

Answer 2

Are there a lot of excercises?

Answer 3

the book is good for explanation, but there's not a lot of exercises, I'm sorry.
