Definitely one of the best books to read to become an excellent Javascript developer. The main difference between this book and others is that the author is amazingly experienced in writing Javascript code, and their understanding of the languages and new features is so deep that their main focus is to make sure the readers will gain a much deeper understading of the new features on the ground and the below mechanics underground.
