I'd highly recommend this book to anyone working with JS. Even for experienced JS developers, it uncovers a whole area of JS that's mostly underutilized. The book is packed with practical examples and parallels to other languages. It's engaging and well worth the purchase.

From the Publisher
Target Audience
The ideal reader of this book is an engineer who has been writing JavaScript for a few years, and who doesn’t necessarily have experience with writing multithreaded applications or even experience with more traditionally multithreaded languages like C++ or Java. We do include some example C application code, as a sort of multithreaded lingua franca, but it’s not something that the reader is expected to be familiar with or even understand.
If you do have experience with such languages, that’s great, and this book will help you understand the JavaScript equivalent to the functionality provided by whatever language you may be familiar with. On the other hand, if you’ve only written code using JavaScript, then this book is also for you. We include information across multiple layers of learning; this includes both low-level API references, high-level patterns, and plenty of technical tangents in between to help fill in any gaps.
Poor quality print
I can't believe people write a great book and charge decent amount for it just to choose the cheapest possible on demand printing. Some pages are crisp and some are slightly blurry which is really annoying. Funny how $10 fiction books have better print quality than $60 technical books these days.
