JavaScript is the ubiquitous programming language of the Web, and for more than 15 years, JavaScript: The Definitive Guide has been the bible of JavaScript programmers around the world. This book is an all-new excerpt of The Definitive Guide, collecting the essential parts of that hefty volume into this slim yet dense pocket reference.
The first 9 chapters document the latest version (ECMAScript 5) of the core JavaScript language, covering:
- Types, values, and variables
- Operators, expressions, and statements
- Objects and arrays
- Functions and classes
The next 5 chapters document the fundamental APIs for using JavaScript with HTML5 and explain how to:
- Interact with web browser windows
- Script HTML documents and document elements
- Modify and apply CSS styles and classes
- Respond to user input events
- Communicate with web servers
- Store data locally on the user's computer
This book is a perfect companion to jQuery Pocket Reference.

TL;DR A useful and cheaper substitution for the 6th edition of JavaScript: The Definitive Guide, especially if you travel. This is not a javascript reference. It's an excerpt.
From the preface:
"This book is an excerpt from the more comprehensive JavaScript: The Definitive Guide... I'm hopeful that some readers will find this shorter and denser book more useful than the larger and more intimidating volume from which it came."
Deciding to purchase JavaScript Pocket Reference depends upon whether or not you own JavaScript: The Definitive Guide.
If you do own JavaScript: The Definitive Guide there are only two reasons to purchase the pocket "reference":
1. You travel
2. You'd rather flip through 288 pages rather than 1000 pages
If you don't own the definitive guide, buy this and save yourself $25.
I reviewed this book as an ePub on the iPad for O'Reilly's Blogger Review Program.

Unfortunately, this book is not 'JavaScript Pocket Reference, 3rd edition' but really 'JavaScript Pocket *Guide*, 1st edition'. Gone is the last part of the book with the description of the language's classes with their members and methods and occasional details about various browser differences.
I really like the 2nd edition and use it a lot, and was hoping to get the *same* book, just updated to the latest version of the language.
As a pocket guide, by quickly browsing the book, it looks like it deserves at least 4 stars, but this review is for the pocket reference.
