Negative Positive
Title: muddled and unsatisfactory
Review: Nick is clearly an extremely talented code writer, but this in itself does not equip him well to teach others. He seems impatient with his readers, and this one is left feeling very confused. Many of the examples lack cross browser compatability; one even includes a visual basic script which seems laughable, given the title of the book. The text accompanying the examples is irritating because it is often not clear which words are javascript syntax and which are not. Bizarre formatting of the code on the bundled CDrom does not make for an easy ride, either.
Is the review positive or negative?
