4. JavaScript Enlightenment by Cody Lindley
JavaScript Enlightenment seeks to give an accurate JavaScript world-view through an examination of native JavaScript objects and supporting nuances: complex values, primitive values, scope, inheritance, the head object, etc.
This book offers a curated selection of the commonly used language updates After studying the material in this book grokking new JavaScript code while learning JavaScript frameworks and tools, readers should be much more comfortable.
The book solidifies your understanding of the language.
Chapters cover:
- Get a short and digestible summary of ECMA-262, Edition 3; the most widely implemented version of JavaScript to date.
- Examine the creation of JavaScript objects.
- Learn complex values, primitive values, scope, and inheritance.
- Understand the importance of the head object.
- Work with string, number, and Boolean objects and values.
- Discover how to use the null value and the built-in math object.
- Get into the details—beyond Mozilla’s reference guide for JavaScript 1.5.
The book is targeted at advanced beginners or intermediate JavaScript developers who wish to solidify their understanding of the language through an in-depth look at JavaScript objects. The book also aims to reach the JavaScript library veteran who is ready to look behind the curtain. It is not an exhaustive reference guide to JavaScript.
The first edition of the book is published under an open source license.

6. Learning JavaScript Design Patterns by Addy Osmani
Design patterns are reusable solutions to commonly occurring problems in software design. They are both exciting and a fascinating topic to explore in any programming language.
In this book we will explore applying both classical and modern design patterns to the JavaScript programming language.
This book is targeted at professional developers wishing to improve their knowledge of design patterns and how they can be applied to the JavaScript programming language.
