Another food "Phrasebook" release

Rating:

Sam's has done a few of these "Phrasebok" style books - small, pocketbook size, relatively short. This doesn't replace O'Reilly's "Javascript - the Definitive Guide" (and there is some overlap), but it's a handly little thing to augment it.

It's all short code examples, with explanations. The assumption is that you already know some Javascript or will go look it up if not.

I'm impressed by how much the author packs in here. It's like admiring a well packed suitcase: how did he manage to squeeze so much into such a small space?
