    I like the bible's for stuff like this, but a quick and dirty book is one of those 24hr books.

    They will give you almost everything you need for day to day JS code. On the rare occasion you need something more, you can go to a Bibble or a Nutshell.

    hth,

    I find cookbooks a great way to learn not just the syntax but actual examples of how to implement.

    I've also never been disappointed with books from O'Reilly.
