!rant but recommendation:
"JavaScript: The Good Parts" Douglas Crockford.

I really like this book.
It's chewed away my misconceptions of JS. Especially coming from C++.

Small and precise.
JSON, JSLint and JSMin developer is the author.

Thanks :-)

Great book! I'd also recommend the series "You don't know JS" by Kyle Simpson. To me, even better than "The Good Parts".

@jordinebot ooOOoo, will do thanks!

Never meet the guy in person though.

He's about the most self-absorbed overbearing cunt you can imagine.

Worst part is, he's a genius, a great debater, and almost always right about everything... so you can't really punch him in the face for being such a pretentious dick, but every fiber in your being would love to.

Great book though.

@bittersweet ah man... that's such a damn shame!

@bittersweet so meeting him is... bittersweet?

I will have to check out that book though
