If JavaScript is your choice of programming languages, and you don't already know basic Data Structures and Algorithms, then this could be a good place to start. It does contain an odd choice of JavaScript Engines in Mozilla's JavaScript Shell, but, as pointed out, to work in Node the examples would have to have been modified which likely cloud the examples. However, most people implementing the stuff in this book are going to need to convert them to Node, or at least have them work in a Web Browser environment. Full Review >

There are a ton of books on JavaScript and quite a few of them are good. However, there are very few of them I would recommend, mostly I just tell people: find one that looks good and get it, it doesn't really matter in the end. This one is a must read though. I can't imagine that one would get to an advanced understanding of JavaScript without the knowledge contained in the book. Full Review >

Once I heard David Geary's voice I knew this was going to be a good one. A real make or break on videos is having someone who really enjoys what they're showing you, had fun doing it and is excited to show it to other people. That said, David is pretty low-key and easy going, which is good since it's going to take several hours to make it through the videos, and there will be points where you want to go back and watch sections again. The last thing you want is someone's voice who drives you bonkers.
