• Eloquent JavaScript, 3rd Edition: A Modern Introduction

  Eloquent JavaScript dives deep into the JavaScript language to show you how to write beautiful, effective code. It immerses you in example code from the start, while exercises and full-chapter projects give you hands-on experience.

• Deep JavaScript: Theory and Techniques (Axel Rauschmayer)

  In depth knowledge of JavaScript makes it easier to learn a variety of other frameworks, including Node.js, React, Angular, and related tools and libraries. This book is designed to help you cover the core JavaScript concepts you need to build modern applications.

• JavaScript for Impatient Programmers (Axel Rauschmayer)

  This book makes JavaScript less challenging to learn for newcomers, by offering a modern view that is as consistent as possible. No prior knowledge of JavaScript is required, but you should know how to program.

• Understanding ECMAScript 6 (Nicholas C. Zakas)

  This book is a guide for the transition between ECMAScript 5 and 6. In particular, this book is aimed at intermediate-to-advanced JavaScript developers (both browser and Node.js environments) who want to learn about the future of the language.

• Functional-Light JavaScript (Kyle Simpson)

  This book is a balanced, pragmatic exploration of Functional Programming (FP) in JavaScript. It explores the core principles of FP as they are applied to JavaScript without drowning in all the heavy terminology.

• Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs in JavaScript

  This book introduces the reader to central ideas of computation by establishing a series of mental models for computation. It has had a dramatic impact on computer science curricula over the past decades. Examples are implemented using the JavaScript.

• Object-Oriented JavaScript, 2nd Edition (Stoyan Stefanov, et al.)

  This book shows you everything you need to learn object oriented JavaScript, demonstrating valuable techniques and strategies that you can use to fully experience the impressive capabilities of the language.

• ECMAScript 6 Succinctly (Matthew Duffield)

  This book is a concise introduction to ECMAScript 6 (ES6). It teaches you how to develop applications using all of those ECMAScript 6 (ES6) new functionality and features. You can also target browsers that don't even support ES6 yet using a transpiler.

• O'Reilly® High Performance Browser Networking (Ilya Grigorik)

  This book provides a hands-on overview of what every web developer needs to know about the various types of networks (WiFi, 3G/4G), transport protocols (UDP, TCP, and TLS), application protocols (HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2), and APIs available in the browser.

• Composing Software: Functional and Object in JavaScript

  All software design is composition: the act of breaking complex problems down into smaller problems and composing those solutions. Most developers have a limited understanding of compositional techniques. It's time for that to change.
