Summary: information in this book is very very VERY old!
Comment: this book is a total waste of money. The things you learn are made for very old browsers. So if you want a book to learn js don't get this one, you would learn things as they where done 10 years ago.

Summary: Full client side javascript tutorial
Comment: This is a perfect book for those who is looking for skills of creating dynamic web pages, though it is a bit outdated now in part of intensive discussion on how to create cross-platform pages for older versions of IE and Netscape.
The original drawback of the book is a lack of information on how to handle situations when you don't use IIS as a web server and your database is other than MS Office Access. It's understood a single book can not cover every single OS flavor and all the variety of Web Servers and databases but limiting a discussion of server side scripting to ASP only is sort of a weak approach. The same is true for programming examples with MS Access only.
However, besides that it is a really good book and is strongly suggested as a comprehensive guide for client side javascripting.

Summary: Great book for beginners
Comment: This is a great book for beginners. The author explained everything in detail on how everything works together. You do not need any book else for the same topic to get you started and to get your work done.

Summary: Book confuses the issues and doesn't get to the syntax
Comment: Instead of defining all the attributes of say "Request.QueryString" into differenct contexts like Javascript and HTML , he muddles around with probably the lamest web application environment around.
  
Editorial Reviews:
JavaScript is the language of the Web. Used for programming all major browsers, JavaScript gives you the ability to enhance your web site by creating interactive, dynamic and personalized pages. Our focus in this book is on client-side scripting, but JavaScript is also hugely popular as a scripting language in server-side environments, a subject that we cover in later chapters.

Beginning JavaScript assumes no prior knowledge of programming languages, and teaches you all the fundamental concepts that you need as you progress. After covering the core JavaScript language, you'll move on to learn about more advanced techniques, including Dynamic HTML, using cookies, debugging techniques, and server-side scripting with ASP. By the end of this book, you will have mastered the art of using JavaScript to create dynamic and professional-looking web pages.
