<DIV><p>Although object orientated programming is probably not the first thing that programmers think of when they think of JavaScript, JavaScript is not just object-oriented but also incredibly powerful and expressive, putting many design decisions in the hands of those developers who know how to use it effectively. <I>The Principles of Object-Oriented JavaScript</I> helps experienced programmers understand JavaScript's unique approach to object-oriented programming so they can tackle their problems effectively, and with less code. Author Nicholas C. Zakas provides even readers with minimal JavaScript experience a deep understanding of the structure of the language.</p></div>
