While JavaScript is NOT a Toy makes several valuable points about javascript, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of javascript 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.

I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with JavaScript is NOT a Toy, but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains javascript made everything click for me. I've been struggling with javascript for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about javascript - it reminded me so much of my own experience with javascript. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

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 5's discussion of javascript 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 the pacing could be better, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.
