A Smarter Way to Learn JavaScript

A few years ago I set out to teach myself JavaScript by reading programming books. It was such a struggle that I decided I must have lost some learning ability over the years. Then it hit me... I wasn't a bad learner. The books were bad teachers! I fought my way through a dozen books, and by brute effort, learned JavaScript. But I had to design exercises for myself. Without practice, I couldn't retain anything.JavaScript, I learned, isn't that hard. The books make it hard. So I wrote a book that makes JavaScript easy. And, since exercises are the only way to make the knowledge stick, I programmed 1,750 of them for you.I'm a former lecturer in the Communications School of Boston University. I hold an A.B. from Harvard. My professional focus is on using technology to reduce the effort and tedium of learning, primarily through interactivity. I'm developing the "A Smarter Way to Learn" series on programming, a collection of instructional books paired with online interactive exercises. I run the website http://www.ASmarterWayToLearn.com.Along with my wife Judy and our two politically-active cats, I live in Taos, NM, where I cook under the ghostly supervision of Marcella Hazan, read extensively, play showboat frisbee once a week, and long for more episodes of "Breaking Bad."

书看完了，题没做完。讲的内容非常简单，任何学过javascript的人都应该能写出来，但是这种配合在线练习的形式却没人尝试做过。毫无疑问只有动手做过的人才能理解和记住每一个细节。有新意的东西我都喜欢，5星给创新性。

我对其实前端兴趣挺低的… js基础语法很容易懂 主要是看和html结合的交互 还有dom 有配套的网上交互习题 @2017-03-10 00:49:39

名不副实，通过知识点的拼凑让读者感觉自己学到了很多，而最重要的编程思想却没有教导。让读者“懂得了很多道理，却依然写不好一段代码。”
