Head First JavaScript

这是一本把编程讲得像读小说一样顺滑的入门书。它不追求面面俱到——近600页里干货其实不多，却把面向对象、DOM操作讲得具体清楚，第8章DOM被读者专门点名“很赞”。全书1到7章铺基础语法，再借对象与实例把OOP落地，适合已经会HTML和CSS、想跨入动态网页编程、又几乎零编程基础的初学者。它的最大卖点是阅读体验：节奏轻、不劝退，有人三天草草翻完，有人断断续实看“明白个大概”就急着上实战。但正因如此，它更像一扇把你从“复制粘贴”推向“自己写交互页面”的入门门，而非系统深入的技术手册；有编程基础的人读来或许只是“纯娱乐”。如果你要的是轻松上手、建立信心，它会是很好的起点。
