Introduction to JavaScript (Volume 2) Randall S Robertson

Why JavaScript? JavaScript is one of the most useful and popular languages to have appeared in the relatively brief history of the world wide web. Its development and implementation has been almost single-handedly responsible for the web's tremendous growth and acceptance as the worldwide standard of information sharing and data transfer. JavaScript has also been responsible for the web's transition from a collection of static, non-interactive, one-way information-bearing pages to the dynamic, interactive environment that attracts, entertains and informs billions of people all over the world today. The demand for web programmers has never been greater than it is today and one of the skills that is absolutely essential for these programmers to know and be proficient at is JavaScript.
