I love teaching and writing. And I hope my books are a vehicle for learning. It is my goal to teach you new technologies in a way that it very readable, conversational.

5.0 out of 5 stars Darn Good Book, January 20, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Learn JavaScript (Paperback)
This is simply the best learn JavaScript book I have seen. If you want to teach yourself, this book will do it. It starts with a chapter on basic HTML, for those readers who need it. Then each chapter describes a group of related techniques, such as image effects. COMPLETE code examples are given...I like that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, September 21, 2002
This review is from: Learn JavaScript (Paperback)
This book is the easiest to follow JavaScript book on the market. I wish all programming books where this easy to read. The writting style is smooth and conversational. The examples are spelled out in an easy to follow step by step process, complete with pictures so that you can see exactly what should result from the code you write. If you want to learn JavaScript in a short time...buy this book.
