>That MSPress book is not a good one to get started. While it covers some basics, it's really geared to use JavaScript for writing Windows apps. I used "JavaScript Visual Quickstart" to get going with javascript.

>>I need a JS book advice for me. I see a MS Free Ebook Windows 8 programming with JS. I'm not sure if this's a good book for a a newcomer. May I begin with this book or should I read a pure JS book in first? If answer is second, which book?

Thank you. Another question. Which IDE did you used with JS at the beginning?
