While JavaScript is NOT a Toy makes several valuable points about simulation, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of simulation seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to javascript. That said, the sections on simulation are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in simulation, this could be a truly outstanding work.

JavaScript is NOT a Toy is a comprehensive exploration of javascript that manages to be both accessible to newcomers and valuable to experts. The book is divided into 8 sections, each building thoughtfully on the last. Part 3's discussion of simulation is particularly strong, with clear examples and practical applications. The diagrams and illustrations throughout help clarify complex ideas, and the chapter summaries are excellent for review. My only minor critique is that more primary sources would strengthen the argument, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.
