This short and digestible summary of JavaScript 1.5 (ECMA-262, Edition 3 specification) focuses on the nature of objects in JavaScript, giving you an accurate JavaScript worldview through an examination of native JavaScript objects and supporting nuances: complex values, primitive values, scope, inheritance, the head object, and more.
If you’re a designer or developer who has only used JavaScript under the mantle of libraries – such as jQuery and Prototype – the material in this book will help transform you from a JavaScript library user into a JavaScript developer.
