"While reading this book, you'll probably notice that you are learning to program in JavaScript without having realized it."
--James Pyles, Linux Pro Magazine
"Head First Javascript actually does a decent job of describing who this book will help, and who it will not help. That alone had me intrigued right from the start...As a hobbyist I felt like this was a great introduction to JavaScript. I think it gave me a foundation to build on and the ability to use more of the materials freely available on the web. Sometimes there is just so much of that out there, that it is difficult to know where to start. One of my primary goals in reading this book was to put together a couple simple web apps for myself as well as to get a better understanding of using the DOM for some Firefox plugins I would like to write. This book met those needs."

"For a lively, hands-on and memorable intro into JavaScript, Head First JavaScript is hard to beat. "
