Pro Javascript Techniques--recommended?

[David Mark]

Does this book need a another look?

"I would very highly recommend it. It's written by the creator of
jQuery John Resig."

Who was not a professional at the time and clearly knew little or
nothing about sound Javascript techniques (or how to choose a
technical editor.) But then he did write a really lousy script that
was embraced by lots of clueless people, so that retroactively
validates his earlier book.

The second part of the question was a request for a good forum to
learn about Javascript in general. No recommendations were offered.

Based on what we have already seen about it here, definitely not. The
author clearly does not not what he is talking about. Groups-google for
`"Pro JavaScript" author:Richard author:Cornford'.

Yes, but I overlooked it. My bad.
