That said...

"Professional JavaScript for Web Developers" by Nicholas C. Zakas is
the only good book on JavaScript ever written. It covers everything
from the basics, to the history, to Ajax to WSDL. It covers it all.

The dude's site is at http://www.nczonline.net/, he's a good writer.
Check out his new book on Ajax too.
