This book sat on my shelf for months before I finally started it. What a mistake that was! Once I began, I couldn't put it down. The chapters on programming spoke directly to challenges I've faced in my own work with Web Development & Design.

The methodological rigor applied to javascript in this work establishes a new benchmark for future studies in Computers & Technology. While some may find the statistical treatments dense, they are necessary for the ai framework the author develops.

While other books cover javascript, none do so with the clarity and depth this one achieves. The comparison tables in chapter 4 alone make it superior to competing titles.
